The Octet Rule says that an atom is in its most stable state when it has a full valence shell (8 electrons in its valence shell). So, atoms take the electrons of other atoms to satisfy the Octet Rule. For example, carbon only has four valence electrons.

Contrast the force of gravity between these pairs of objects a 1 kg mass and a 2 kg mass that are 1 m apart and two 2 kg masses that are 1 m apart

Avehicle has an oil leak that is causing the entire oil pan to be wet, but inspection reveals no exact source after cleaning off the oil residue. technician a says to install a fluorescent dye in the crankcase and operate the engine, then re-inspect for leaks with a special light (black light). technician b says the oil leak may be coming from a source at the top of the engine, such as a valve cover gasket. who is correct?

Which of the following correctly describes what happens when an atomic bomb explodes? small pieces of fissionable material are joined and form a body with a mass greater than the critical mass, the relative number of neutrons escaping decreases, and a chain reaction and explosion result. large pieces of fissionable matter are brought together quickly and form a body with a mass smaller than the critical mass, the relative number of escaping neutrons increases, and a chain reaction and explosion result.
