Atoms obtain octet configuration when linked with other atoms. This is said by _________(a) Lewis(b) Kossel(c) Langmuir(d) SidgwickThis question was addressed to me in homework.The above asked question is from Kossel-Lewis Approach to Chemical Bonding topic in chapter Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure of Chemistry – Class 11

Answer»

Correct answer is (a) Lewis

For explanation I would say: The above statement says that the atoms achieve a stable octet configuration when joined with other atoms through chemical bonds as postulated by Lewis. An example of this is the formation of NaCl MOLECULE where Na and CL transfer ELECTRONS to each other forming Na^+ and Cl^–.
