It what happens when elements don't obey the octect rule, i.e. elements that have more than eight electrons in their outermost shell. It what happens when elements don't obey the octect rule, i.e. elements that have more than eight electrons in their outermost shell.

∙ 10y agoPotentially elements above neon in the Periodic Table, as these have d orbitals and te hevier ones f orbitals . In practise exclude the group 1,2 elements. The "expansion" of the octet is common it is a rule but in inorganic chemistry all rules are made to be broken even this one. P.S don't forget Hydrogen that obeys the duet rule (Helium configuration)!

∙ 14y agowhen the central atom has more than 8 electrons,it is octet rule violation

∙ 10y agoThe octet rule is a chemistry rule or guideline. It is states that when an atom is low in atomic number it will behave a certain way. If it doesnÕt follow the rule then is a standard atom.

Which doesn't violate the octet rule sf4 krf2 cf4 xef4 icl4-?
CF4 Doesn't violate the Octet Rule, the rest do.
No2 violate octet rule?
Yes
What is the Lewis formula for the octet rule for the ions ClO2?
There is ClO2 and ClO2^-. For the chlorite anion (ClO2^-) the Cl will have 10 electrons and will violate the octet rule. For ClO2, all elements will have 8 electrons.
Does BeH2 violate the octet rule?
The octet rule only applies to elements that are heavy enough to have reached the second shell of electrons. In the first shell, the octet rule does not apply because the first shell is completed with only two electrons, not eight. So no, the octet rule does not apply to beryllium hydride.
Do Cu plus and Cu2 plus plus violate the octet rule?
The octet rule does not apply to transition metals.
Which three elements violate the octet rule?
The octet rule cannot be satisfied in molecules whose total number of valence electrons is an odd number.There are also molecules in which an atom has fewer, or more, than an octet of valence electrons.

Octet rule for diatomic elements?
yes!
What molecules does not violate the octet rule no bcl3 bef2 sef6 f2ccf2?

What is significant of octet rule?
The octet rule is the tendency of many chemical elements to have eight electrons in the valence shell.
What molecules do not violate the octet rule?
I think two elements that does not follow the octet rule are boron and beryllium. These elements always have one electron pair less than normal configuration. Boron is an important element for our body.
How do metals obey the Lewis octet rule?
The elements can be described by dot structure. Metals combine with other elements to make its octet complete.
Which rule says that elements will bond to a total number of 8 electrons to be stable?
octet rule
