Question

When main group coments react, they tend to acquire eight outer-shell electrons (n.snp"). This is called an octar, and it is a particularly stable configuration. Part A If the following elements were to form an ionic compound, which noble gas configuration would they most likely allain? Drag the appropriate elements to their respective bins. View Available Hints) Group Valence To attain octet 1A na lose one electron 217682 lose two electrons 3A np lose three electrons 5A musnp gain three electrons 6A snp gain two electrons TA 'n gain on electron 84 snip" rarely gain or lose electrons Reset) Holy OMODOU Nonmetals in the third period and beyond can break the ocet rule because they have vacant d orbitals that alow them to accommodate more than eight outer-shell clectrons.
