Octet Rule – When forming compounds atoms gain, lose, or share valence electrons with other atoms so as to acquire the same number of valence electrons as the next noble gas on the periodic table. When sharing valence electrons, all atoms tend to be most stable with a set of 8 valence electrons , with the exception of hydrogen and helium, which are most stable with 2 valence electrons.
4 valence e- 1 valence e- per H (Needs 4 more e-) (Need 1 more e- each) C has 8 valence e- Each H has 2 valence e- Octet Rule Satisfied
5 valence e- 7 valence e- per Br (Needs 3 more e-) (Need 1 more e- each) All atoms have 8 valence e- Octet Rule Satisfied
