2. Octet Rule and Noble Gases

  • Noble gases are chemically inactive and generally do not lose or gain electrons.
  • All noble gases except helium have eight electrons in the outermost shell.
  • Helium is stable with only 2 electrons because its first shell is complete.
3

3. Ionic Bond and Ionic Compounds

  • Ionic bond is formed between dissimilar atoms due to transfer of electrons.
  • Metal atoms usually lose electrons and form cations.
  • Non-metal atoms usually gain electrons and form anions.

4. Covalent Bond, Bond Order, and Common Molecules

  • Covalent bond is formed by mutual sharing of a pair of valence shell electrons.
  • Shared electrons belong to both atoms.
  • A single bond is one shared pair, a double bond is two shared pairs, and a triple bond is three shared pairs.
