Basic Chemistry

The valence of an atom is its

• The number of neutrons required by an element to become perfect in everyway

• The total number of protons required to satify the octet rule

• The total number of electron needed by an atom to satisfy the octet rule

• Combining power of an element, the number of electrons needed to give, take or share to satify the octet rule

• 6

• -1

• +1

• 5

Ionic bonds are formed

• When non-metals react together to form solids

• When 2 metals react together to achieve the octet rule

• When metals react with non-metals and ions are formed

• When transition metals react together
