No.

Some molecules, such as boron triflouride (BF3) and phosphorus pendachloride (PCl5) are octect violators.

Does PO4 negative three charge 3 obey 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.

How many covalent bonds are formed by tellurium?

The element tellurium would be expected to form 2covalent bonds in order to obey the octet rule.Te is a nonmetal in group 6A, and therefore has 6 valence electrons. In order to obey the octet rule, it needs to gain 2 electrons. It can do this by forming 2single covalent bonds.


What type of Bond does arsenic form?

The element Arsenic would be expected to form 3 covalent bonds in order to obey the octet rule. As is a nonmetal in group 5A, and therefore has 5 valence electrons. In order to obey the octet rule, it needs to gain 3electrons. It can do this by forming 3 single covalent bonds.


Please predict how many covalent bond oxygen will make to satisfy the octet rule?

It makes two covalent bonds which completes its octet.


Does ClF5 obey octet rule?

Yes. Both O-F bonds are single covalent, so all three atoms can claim 8 electrons.


What do not obey the octet rule cs2 ci4 no3 po43 sci4?

Cs2, NO3, and PO43 do not obey the octet rule because they have an odd number of valence electrons. CI4 and SCI4 do not obey the octet rule because the central atom (Cl or S) exceeds the octet by having more than eight valence electrons.


Which molecule obeys the octet rule cl3cf bcl3 no sbf5 beh2?

BCl3 and BEH2 obey the octet rule because Boron and Beryllium are exceptions to the octet rule and can have stable electron configurations with less than 8 electrons. Cl3CF, NO, and SbF5 do not obey the octet rule because they have incomplete or expanded valence shells.
