Question

What are stable state that an atom tends to acquire? List them along with examples.

Answer 1

Answer:

Atoms will react to get in the most stable state possible. A complete octet is very stable because all orbitals will be full. Atoms with greater stability have less energy, so a reaction that increases the stability of the atoms will release energy in the form of heat or light.

Answer 2

Explanation:

All the atoms present in the modern periodic table tends to have noble has configuration and become stable, to do this the elements either loose or gain the electrons. For example :- sodium losses one electron to become stable and flourine gains one electron to become stable.
