Question

what is octate rule and covalent rule​

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

OCTET RULE. The atoms that participate in covalent bonding share electrons in a way that enables them to acquire a stable electronic configuration, or full valence shell. This means that they want to acquire the electronic configuration of the noble gas of their row. Obviously the name of this rule is a misnomer.

Answer 2

$\huge\mathcal{\underline{Answer}}$

When atoms other than hydrogen form covalent bonds, an octet is accomplished by sharing. The octet rule can be used to explain the number of covalent bonds an atom forms. This number normally equals the number of electrons that atom needs to have a total of eight electrons (an octet) in its outer shell.
