Question

generally speaking* atoms want to have a full valence shell (8 electrons) in order to be
greedy
stable
complete
rewatch
submit

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

In chemistry (a subfield of Natural Science), atoms strive for a full valence shell (often 8 electrons, following the octet rule) to achieve stability. The term "greedy" is not a scientific term for this behavior, and "complete" is not the standard term used to describe the state atoms aim for (stability is the key concept here, as a full valence shell makes the atom less reactive and more stable).

Answer:

stable (the checkbox next to "stable" should be selected)
