Which of the following processes is not exhibited by atoms in order to attain more stable electron configuration?
Gaining of electrons
Hybridization of orbitals
Losing electrons
Sharing electron
Correct answer is B
- An atom may give, take, or share electrons with another atom to achieve a full valence shell, the most stable electron configuration.
- Hybrid orbitals are useful in the explanation of molecular geometry and atomic bonding properties and are symmetrically disposed in space.
