Answer:
An example is nitrogen dioxide (NO2). Each oxygen atom contributes six valence electrons and the nitrogen atom contributes five for a total of seventeen. The Lewis structure for NO2 appears in the figure below
Sulfur, phosphorus, silicon, and chlorine are common examples of elements that form an expanded octet. Phosphorus pentachloride (PCl5) and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) are examples of molecules that deviate from the octet rule by having more than 8 electrons around the central atom.
