Consider these atoms. Which atom (Ba or I) would accept electrons from the other atom to satisfy the octet rule? On left, a central purple circle labeled Ba has 6 concentric rings around it. Starting with the innermost ring, the rings have 2, 8, 18, 18, 8, and 2 small green spheres on them, respectively. On right, a central purple circle labeled I has I concentric rings around it. Starting with the innermost ring, the rings have 2, 8, 18, 18, and 7 small green spheres on them, respectively.
