Towards the noble gas configurationTowards the noble gas configuration
Noble gases are unreactive – they have filled Noble gases are unreactive – they have filled shellsshells

Lewis dot modelLewis dot model The nucleus and all of the core electrons are represented by The nucleus and all of the core electrons are represented by
the element symbolthe element symbol The valence electrons are represented by dots – one for eachThe valence electrons are represented by dots – one for each Number of dots in Lewis model is equal to group number (in Number of dots in Lewis model is equal to group number (in

The Octet RuleThe Octet Rule
All elements strive to All elements strive to become a noble gas, at become a noble gas, at least as far as the least as far as the electrons are concerned.electrons are concerned.
Filling the outer shell – Filling the outer shell – 8 electrons 8 electrons
Achieve this by adding Achieve this by adding electronselectrons

Predicting ion chargesPredicting ion charges
s and p block elements are easy: s and p block elements are easy: charge = group number for cationscharge = group number for cations charge = -(8 – group number) for anionscharge = -(8 – group number) for anions

negative – energy released, meaning negative ion formation is favourablenegative – energy released, meaning negative ion formation is favourable Or zero – meaning can’t be measured and negative ions are not formedOr zero – meaning can’t be measured and negative ions are not formed
Addition of electrons to filled or half-filled shells is not favoured (e.g. He, N)Addition of electrons to filled or half-filled shells is not favoured (e.g. He, N) It is easier to add an electron to Na (3sIt is easier to add an electron to Na (3s11) than to Mg (3s) than to Mg (3s22))
