why only 8 valence electrons is needed in element to be stable,and what do mean by stability of atom?

Expert Answer
It is observed that elements with 8 electrons in the last shell do not combine with other elements.
They are said to be non-reactive, inert and stable.
The reason for some elements to combine with other elements is to get 8 electrons in the valence shell, as 8 valence electrons give extra stability.
They get eight electrons by losing, gaining or sharing electrons with other atoms of the same or different elements.
All chemical reactions involve transfer or sharing of valence electrons so that each atom gets eight electrons.

. Then i have to first react Carbon with Oxygen then react that compond with calcium. So how will i know the valency of compound formed from reaction of carbon with oxygen. We can know the valency of elements from their atomic number and electronic configuration, but how can i know the valency of compound?
Please help,waiting for your reply,
Thank you. Asked by hk.sachdev | 12 Oct, 2018, 10:38: PM
