Question

To make its second-highest energy level be its valence energy level (being filled with an octet of electrons) and possess a more stable electronic arrangement, a strontium atom could form an ionic bond with two oxygen atoms.

Answer 1

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The result after this ionic bond will not be as was stated in the question which makes this false.

Answer 2

No you can't because both Oxygens only have 6 valence electrons and they need 2 more valence electrons each
