Yes. Sulfur is in group 16 and requires two more electrons to make up the octet to form S2-
A carbon ion that obeys the octet rule typically has a charge of 4-. This is because carbon has four valence electrons and typically gains four electrons to achieve a full valence shell of eight electrons, conforming to the octet rule.
The oxygen atoms in the ion do obey the octet rule. The phosphorus atom has more than eight electrons in its valence shell. It is because of the existence of vacant 3d orbitals.
NH3 is not an exception to the octet rule. Nitrogen (N) in NH3 has a total of 8 valence electrons (5 from nitrogen and 3 from hydrogen), fulfilling the octet rule. Nitrogen has 3 bonded pairs and 1 lone pair of electrons, following the octet rule.
The formal charge on the phosphorus in the phosphate ion is 0. Phosphorus has 5 valence electrons and forms a double bond with one oxygen and single bonds with the other three oxygens, satisfying the octet rule. This arrangement results in a formal charge of 0 for the phosphorus atom.
The oxidation number is the charge assigned to an atom to comply with the octet rule, which states that atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration with eight electrons in their outermost shell (except for hydrogen and helium, which follow the duet rule).

Yes, it does.
Az important rule: any octet has to have eight parts, otherwise it is not an octet.
no it does not follow octet rule
No chlorine oxides will obey the octet rule.

Hydrogen is the atom that doesn't always obey the octet rule. It only needs 2 electrons to have a full outer shell, rather than the 8 electrons typically required by the octet rule. Oxygen and bromine usually follow the octet rule.
Yes, iodine can exceed the octet rule and have an expanded octet due to its ability to accommodate more than eight electrons in its valence shell.
The octet rule is the tendency of many chemical elements to have eight electrons in the valence shell.
