Bonding
Ions and the Octet Rule
Atoms use their ___________________________
electrons to _________________ and interact with other
_________________. You can think of this as their way
of “_________________________.”
The Goal:
Atoms want to have _________ valence electrons in
their ________________ shell to become
________________.
Octet Rule
Octet Rule: A guideline that states that atoms tend to
__________________ in such a way that they each have
____________ electrons in their ___________________
______________ giving them the same ______________
setup as a ___________________ ______________.
HOWEVER, there are _________________________!
Octet Rule in ACTION:
Example: Sodium
Will sodium gain or lose electrons? _________________
How many? __________
What is the new element symbol? ________________
Is the atom stable? ______________
Example: Chlorine
Will chlorine gain or lose electrons? _________________
How many? __________
What is the new element symbol? ________________
Is the atom stable? ______________
