An atom whose valence electrons conform to the octet rule is:
a) more likely to form covalent bonds b) more likely to form ionic bonds c) more likely to form hydrogen bonds d) more likely to become a free radical e) less likely to form any bond with another atom

less likely to form any bond with another atom

Explanation:

The reason for chemical combination is to enable the combining atoms attain noble gas configuration, that is, to have eight electron a around the outermost shell as specified by the octet rule. However for atoms such as noble gases that already have eight electrons around their outermost shell, there is a reluctance towards participation in chemical combination since the outermost shell already contains eight electrons as required by the octet rule.

odds are decent that your handwriting right now looks a little bit different than it did five years ago, and will look different again in five more. when i look back through my notebooks from middle school to now, i see a long, slow progression from meticulous and teeny letters to bigger, sloppier ones, plus a few side detours: sometime in high school, for example, i decided those loopy cursive lowercase f’s were just the coolest, adopting them as the lone rep for cursive in my otherwise all-print handwriting.

explanation:

the answer is 1260

you spend 7 hours in school for 1 school day with 5 school days in 1 school week with 36 school weeks in a school year.

7*5*36= 1260 it's all about multiplying
