Question

define octet rule and surface tension

Answer 1

According to the electronic theory of valence, every atom tries to attain the octet configuration (presence of eight electrons) in its valence shell by losing, gaining or sharing of electrons. This is known as the octet rule.

the tension of the surface film of a liquid caused by the attraction of the particles in the surface layer by the bulk of the liquid, which tends to minimize surface area.

Answer 2

Surface tension: -The phenomenon, due to which exposed surface of a liquid acts like a stretched membrane is known as surface tension.

Octet Rule: - A duplet or octet configuration of electron is more stable and any atom or ion having this configuration will be minimum stage of energy.
