What Rule Could Be Applied In Determining The Charge Of The Materials

What rule could be applied in determining the charge of the materials

 

Octet Rule:

During chemical reaction, atom may gain, loss, or shared the minimum number of valence electron in order to have the same electron configuration of the nearest noble gas.

When atom gains electrons means it has more number of electron which carries negative charged compared to protons which carries positive charged making its charge negative known as anions. And an atom losing electron have more protons making its charged positive.

Positive charged atoms will be attracted by negative charged atom creating an ionic bond.

Covalent bond are formed between nonmetal elements which shares electrons to have the same electron configuration of the nearest noble gas.

Hope it helps...=)
