Write the 'Octet Rule' . How does Mg (12) get stability while reacting with chlorine as per this rule ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Octet Rule : The atoms of elements tend to undergo chemical changes that help to leave their atoms with eight outer- shell electrons .
Magnesium atom looses 2 electrons and get 8 electrons in its outermost shell as Neon . So that it gets stability.
