What is the octet rule? Tells how many protons every atom is trying to get during bonding. Refers to the maximum number of babies that can naturally fit inside a human uterus. "Octomom." It tells that low atomic number atoms generally want 8 electrons in their valence shells-except for H and He, which only can fill their single shells with 2 electrons. If you're going to start up a new singing group (like Pentatonix), you need at least 8 good singers.
