The Octet rule is a chemical rule of thumb that states that atoms of main- group element tends to combine in such way that each atom has eight electrons in its valence shell giving it the same electronic configuration as a noble gas.

The octet rule refers to the tendency of atoms to prefer to have eight electrons in the valence shell. When atoms have fewer than eight electrons, they are less stable, therefore they tend to react from another atom to form more stable compounds.

According to the octet rule all the atoms tend to complete 8 electrons in their outermost shell either by gaining or losing electrons (ionic bond) or by sharing electrons (covalent bond).
