In Lewis structures the goal is to make almost all atoms have an octet This means that they will have access to 8 electrons regularly, even if they do have to share some of them
1) A byte that consists of eight bits 2) A byte composed of eight binary elements
An octet is eight (8) bits In networking, the term "octet" is often used (rather than "byte") since some machine architectures employ bytes that are not 8 bits long
The Internet's own term for eight bits or a byte Some computer systems attached to the Internet have used a byte with more than eight bits, hence the need for this term
rule A scientific law stating that all atoms, except those of hydrogen and helium, require eight electrons in the outermost energy level to maintain chemical stability
Eight bits In networking, this term is sometimes used instead of "byte," because some systems have bytes that are not 8 bits long
a musical composition written for eight performers eight people considered as a unit a set of eight similar things considered as a unit eight performers or singers who perform together
The statement that when atoms combine to form molecules they generally each lose, gain, or share valence electrons until they attain or share eight; also called
A rule stating that atoms lose, gain, or share electrons in order to have a full valence shell of 8 electrons. (Hydrogen is excluded because it can hold a maximum of 2 electrons in its valence shell.)
