WHich of the following is not a a reason that polar bonds form?

• polar bonds form because some atoms have different electronegativities

• polar bonds form because atoms of the same element have equal electronegativities

• polar bonds form because some atoms share electrons unequally

• all of the above are reasons that polar bonds

The octet rule states that atoms are generally most stable when

• eight atoms form ring-shaped molecules

• they combine with other elements to form compounds

• they have eight electrons in their valence energy level

• they lose all their valence electrons

Which of the following best describes metallic bonds?

• metal atoms attracting their sea of shared electrons

• metal molecules having an unequal distribution of electric charge

• two metal atoms sharing electrons in order to become stable

• two metals with opposite electrical charges attaracting each other

The octet rule can be satisfied when an atom

• shares electrons

• gains enough electrons to have a full octet in its valence energy level

• loses enough electrons to expose the full octet of the next lower energy level

• undergoes any of the above
