Answer: Octet rule
Explanation: The elements which have filled s and p orbitals or noble gases are most stable and thus every element tends to get stable by completing their octet.
For example: Sodium [Na] has atomic no of 11 and thus the electronic configuration is : tends to get stable by losing one electron and gets converted to
Electronic configuration for
Thus acquiring stable configuration with filled s and p orbitals.
For example: Fluorine [F] has atomic no of 9 and thus the electronic configuration is : tends to get stable by gaining one electron and gets converted to
Electronic configuration for
Thus acquiring stable configuration with filled s and p orbitals.
Answer:
Sorry my task time about to run out : (
Explanation:
To answer this problem, we need to count the electrons in the given configuration. The complete configuration is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6. There are 2+2+6+2+6 equal to 18 electrons. We find next the element with an atomic number of 18. That element is noble gas argon.
