Study Notes

Kössel-Lewis Approach to Chemical Bonding

  • Chemical bonding occurs due to attractive forces between constituent atoms, ions, or molecules.
  • Atoms combine to form molecules to achieve stability.
  • The octet rule states that atoms tend to gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a stable configuration with eight electrons in their valence shell, similar to noble gases.
  • The number of valence electrons in an atom is directly related to its group valence.
