Octet Rule
Linked via "Boron trihalides"
Electron Deficient Species (Incomplete Octet)
Certain elements, particularly those in Group 2 (Beryllium, Magnesium) and Group 13 (Boron, Aluminum), often form stable compounds where the central atom possesses fewer than eight valence electrons. Boron trihalides's, such as $\text{BF}_3$, typically exhibit only six electrons around the boron center, achieving …
