Bf3 can be octet or not​

Chemistry
1 answer:
makvit [3.9K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

(BH3 follows the octet rule by dimerizing, as Hadi Kurniawan AR pointed out.) For H and He, an "octet" = 2 electrons. Boron does prefer to follow the octet rule, in that it likes to form borate compounds such as NaBH4. It also is happy to form compounds with elements with lone pairs.

Describe the properties of alkali metals. Based on their electronic arrangement, explain whether they exist alone in nature.
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

- They are highly reactive metals

- They have low electro negativity

- They have low ionization energy

- They don't exist alone in nature

- They have low densities

Explanation:

Alkali metals are the elements in group 1 of the periodic table. They include Sodium, Lithium, Potassium e.t.c.

Due to the fact they have one atom in their outermost shell, they are very unstable because they easily react with other elements and are therefore don't exist alone in nature but combined with other elements for this same reason.

Since alkali metals don't easily attract other elements due to it's lone pair in the outer most shell, it can be said to have low electro negativity.

Also, they don't need energy to discharge their electrons since they are highly reactive due to their lone pair in the outermost shell and so we say they have low ionization energy.

Due to this reason, they also have low densities.
