According to the octet rule, if an atom has fewer than 8 electrons in the outer most energy level, what is likely to happen?(1 point)
It will react with other nearby atoms to give, receive or share electrons until it has a full outer shell.
It will release electrons and protons until it reaches a stable configuration.
Nothing will happen, unless it is radioactive.
It will gain or lose neutrons until it has an equivalent number of neutrons to protons.
