Chapter 12, Problem 16E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The number of covalent bonds formed by tellurium in order to attain octet configuration is to be stated. The formula of the compound formed between tellurium and hydrogen is to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

The octet configuration is the configuration in which the outermost shell of an atom contains 8 or 18 electrons. The octet configuration has less energy and therefore, it is stable. The electrons present in the outermost shell participate in the bond formation in order to attain the octet configuration.
