Question 11 of 12
0.0/ 5.0 Points
The octet rule is extremely important in science. Answer the following regarding the octet rule.
What is it?
Why is it important relative to what we learned in this lesson?
Are there any exceptions to this rule? If so, explain in detail.
Be sure to base your answer on what we discussed in THIS class and use the terminology from the course materials.
The Octet rule states that atoms will react with each other in a way that will give them eight electrons in their valence shell (Outer most electron shell). It makes them stable. Usually octet rule refers to electrons in s and p orbitals.
For example take a look at Carbon. It has four valence electrons and if we were to draw its Lewis dot structure, we would see one electron on each side of the Carbon. For that reason, Carbon is highly reactive where it can bond with almost anything! And this rooted the separate branch of chemistry namely "Organic Chemistry". So as it determines the type of bonding, its really important in Science and we have learned about different types of bonds in this lesson and thats the relevant part here about Octet rule. 
There are three general exceptions to the octet rule: 
(1) Molecules, with an odd number of electrons : Because most molecules or ions that consist of s- and p-block elements contain even numbers of electrons, their bonding can be described using a model that assigns every electron to either a bonding pair or a lone pair. There are, however, a few molecules containing only p-block elements that have an odd number of electrons.
(2) Molecules in which one or more atoms possess more than eight electrons, such as SF6 : The most common exception to the octet rule is a molecule or an ion with at least one atom that possesses more than an octet of electrons. 
(3) Molecules, in which one or more atoms possess less than eight electronssuch as BCl3 : Molecules with atoms that possess less than an octet of electrons generally contain the lighter s and block elements, especially beryllium, typically with just four electrons around the central atom, and boron, typically with six. 
Feedback: This is discussed in chapters 9 and 10
Question 12 of 12
0.0/ 5.0 Points
What are the full and abbreviated electron configurations for the following elements. Be sure to explain how you arrived at this configuration.  Explain it to me--don't just give me the configuration.
a) Arsenic
b) Tungsten
a) Arsenic:  Atomic number of Arsenic is 33,
Full Electronic Configuration : 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 3d10 4s2 4p3
So total electrons in the first, second , third and fourth subshells are 2,,8,18,5, which means it has 5 valence shells. 
Abbreviated Electronic Configuration : As the nearest noble gas is Argon (Stable), the abbreviated electronic configuration can be given as :   [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p3
b) Tungsten:  Atomic number of Tungsten is 74,
Full Electronic Configuration : 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s3p6 3d10 4s2 4p4d10 4f14 5s2 5p6 5d4 6s2
So total electrons in the first, second , third,  fourth, fifth and sixth subshells are 2,,8,18,32,12 and 2 which means it has 2 valence shells. 
Abbreviated Electronic Configuration : As the nearest noble gas is Xenon (Stable), the abbreviated electronic configuration can be given as :  [Xe] 4f14 5d4 6s2
Model Short Answer: chapter 9
