To create the Lewis structure we need to take into account the octet rule: atoms tend to gain, lose or share electrons to complete their valence shell with 8 electrons.
C belongs to Group 4A in the periodic table so it has 4 valence electrons. It needs to share 4 pairs of electrons to complete the octet.
F belongs to Group 7A in the periodic table so it has 7 valence electrons. Each F needs to share 1 pair of electrons to complete the octet.
As a consequence, in CF₄, C will form a single bond with each F and all the octets will be complete.
Answer:
Elements form compounds to satisfy the octet rule. Noble gasses never form compounds because they already satisfy the octet rule.
Explanation:
The octet Rule is the theory that an element will attempt to gain a valence of 8 by binding with another element in it's vicinity. This can happen in a variety of ways, but the main thing to remember is that they will take the "shortest path" to 8(I.e an element will sometimes lose an electron or 2 if it has a valence 1 or 2 to loop back around to 8, while an element with a valence of 6 or 7 will attempt to gain 2 or 1 electrons).
Valence of elements can be counted by group in the image attached.
Group 1 has a valence of 1, Group 2 has a valence of 2, then we move to group 13 which has a valence of 3, group 14 has a valence of 4, group 15 has a valence of 5, group 16 has 6, group 17 has 7, and group 18 is the noble gasses which have 8.
Explanation:
When magnesium metal burns is heated i the air it forms magnesium oxide.The balanced chemical reaction is given as:
2 moles of magnesium metal when reacts with 1 moles of oxygen it gives 2 moles of magnesium oxide which is white in color.
Some times along with formation of magnesium oxide small amount of magnesium nitride also produced due to which magnesium oxide appears grey in color .The balanced chemical reaction is given as:
3 moles of magnesium combines with 1 mol of nitrogen gas to to give 1 mol of magnesium nitride.
