Answer:

B.an atom's outer energy level doesnt have maximum number of electrons

Step-by-step explanation:

Because an atom always need to have a full octet so that it can stabilise...So an atom tends to...share...donate...or gain electrons...in which this is done by forming bonds....so that it can attain a stable octet
