How does the octet rule allow you to predict the charge an ion will have?

 <span>Because of the octet rule, it is easy to predict the charge of the ion of an element. Look at the number of valence electrons the element has. If it is between 1 and 4 the atom will most likely loose those electrons to become stable, making it a positive ion with the charge of the number of electrons it will lose. If it has between 4 and 8 valence electrons the atom will most likely gain electrons to achieve a full outer ring of 8 electrons. Its atom will have a negative charge of the number of electrons it needs to have 8 total. Hope I Helped If You Don't Mind May I Have A Brainliest Answer Please? :)</span>

Fluorine has an atomic number of 9, how many electron shells does it have?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
2 shells because if you do the electronic configuration: 
 2,7 which adds up to 9
7 stands for the group it in and it also stands for how many electrons are in the outer shell.
the amount of spaces stands for which period its in therefore it in period 2

How many moles is 2.55 x 10 to the power of 26 atoms of Neon?​
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

424 mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Number of atoms of Neon: 2.55 × 10²⁶ atoms

Step 2: Calculate the number of moles corresponding to 2.55 × 10²⁶ atoms of Neon

In order to convert atoms into moles, we need a conversion factor, which is Avogadro's number: there are 6.02 × 10²³ atoms of Neon in 1 mole of atoms of Neon.

2.55 × 10²⁶ atoms × (1 mol/6.02 × 10²³ atoms) = 424 mol
