<span>The </span>octet rule<span> is a chemical </span>rule<span> of thumb that reflects observation that atoms of main-group elements tend to combine in such a way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell, giving it the same electronic configuration as a noble gas.

Answer:
144cm²
Explanation:
Given dimensions:
Length x breadth x thickness
18cm x 8cm x 5cm
The widest part of this figure will be the face containing the length and the breadth.
The breadth is the width of the figure;
Area of the widest part = length x breadth = 18cm x 8cm = 144cm
The area of the widest part of the figure is 144cm²
In general when you heat up a liquid such as water its volume "increases" as the heat energy causes the water molecules to move leading to more space between molecules causing it to occupy a larger volume.
