Which elements do not strictly follow the octet rule when they appear in the Lewis structure of a molecule?
Select one or more:
A: Chlorine
B: Carbon
C: Hydrogen
D: Sulfur
E: Fluorine
F: Oxygen



Answer :

The elements do not strictly follow the octet rule when they appear in the Lewis structure of a molecule is : chlorine and sulfur.

The  elements do not strictly follow the octet rule when they appear in the Lewis structure of a molecule is chlorine and sulfur. according to the octet rule the atom most posses the 8 electrons in the outermost shell called valence electrons. The chlorine and the sulfur will sometimes expand the octet rule this means more than 8 electrons in the valence shell.

Thus, The elements do not strictly follow the octet rule when they appear in the Lewis structure of a molecule is : chlorine and sulfur.
