Given below are two statements:
Assertion (A): | Sodium chloride, formed by the action of chlorine gas on sodium metal, is a stable compound. |
Reason (R): | Sodium and chloride ions acquire octets in sodium chloride formation. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is True but (R) is False. |
4. | (A) is False but (R) is True. |
The significance of the octet rule is:
1. To determine the stability of atoms.
2. To find the hybridization of elements.
3. To calculate the number of lone pairs.
4. None of the above.
