Question 3

What is the octet rule

Answer 3

The exception of hydrogen and helium as the valence electrons can hold a maximum of 8 electrons.

Question 4

What does not having a full valence create?

Answer 4

The atom is less stable and more reactive

Question 5

How to atoms try to fill their valence and what is the result

Answer 5

Ions combine to share electrons in bonds. The result is stable molecules with lower energy.
