Answer:
Explanation:
The octet rule does not always refer to a stable arrangement of eight valence electrons because there are some element that do not have eight valence electrons yet they are stable. for example;
i) Helium, It has two valence electrons and it is a stable gas.
ii) Boron triflouride (BF3); it has six valence electrons (deficit valence electron) yet it is also stable.
iii) Phosphorus pentachloride (PCl5); it has more than eight valence electron and it is also stable.
For these few reasons it is not always advisable to say octet arrangement refer to stable eight valence electrons.
