Question 17

Which of the following best describes the octet rule?

Accepted Answer

Atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a noble gas configuration of $$s^2p^6$.

Question 18

Which of the following is NOT a correct statement about resonance structures?

Accepted Answer

All resonance structures have different numbers of valence electrons.

Question 19

Which of the following is a correct statement about the formal charge in Lewis structures?

Accepted Answer

Formal charge is calculated as: number of valence electrons in free atom minus (number of bonding electrons divided by 2 plus number of nonbonding electrons).

Question 20

Which of the following best describes the difference between ionic and covalent bonds?

Accepted Answer

Ionic bonds involve the transfer of electrons and electrostatic attraction between ions, while covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons.
