Document Summary
To achieve noble gas configuration, of which the atom"s octet is full; this makes the atom unreactive, stable, and a lower energy state. When the electronegativities of the atoms are the same or similar. When the electronegativity difference is less than 1. 6, the bond will have more of a covalent character than ionic. C, because it as a distance where the electrons of one atom are attracted to the proton of the other atom, without being repelled by one another. In d, the electrons come too close to each other, so their repulsion is greater than the attraction between the electron and proton. A diagram used to keep track of valence electrons. Bonding the pair of electrons shared by two atoms to form a covalent bond (or, simply, the line in the lewis structure) b. ) Nonbonding or, lone pairs; electron pairs on the central atom that are not bonded to the other atom.
