Anions are negative ions, so any element that gains a negative charge in a chemical reaction. Some examples of elements that commonly do this are the halogens (flourine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, astatine) and oxygen.

What does it mean for a rock to be matallic?
When a rock is metallic, it is made of metal. That is, it has a high electrical conductivity and tends to form cations instead of anions. In laymen's terms, it's shiny and is one of several elements that makes up the bulk of the periodic table of elements.
Is a noble gas such as helium tends not to form compounds with other elements its outer energy level is missing two electrons?
No
What pair of atoms will form an ionic bond?
A metal tends to form an ionic bond with a non-metal. Metals bonding with other metals form a metallic bond, and non-metals bonding with other non-metals form a covalent bond.
What class of elements tends to be involve in covalent bonding?
Nonmetals tend to form covalent bonds when reacting with one another. In covalent bonding, the atoms share valence electrons so that each atom will have a noble gas configuration of electrons, called an octet (8 electrons), except for hydrogen, which bonds to obtain the noble gas configuration of helium, which has 2 valence electrons.
What type of elements tends to have high malleability and conductivity?
metal i think...

Bonding between atoms on the left and right sides of the periodic table tends to be?
ionic

What class of elements tends to be involved in ionic bonding?
Metals and nonmetals tend to undergo ionic bonding when reacting with one another. Metals lose electrons and become positively charged ions, and the nonmetals gain these electrons and become negatively charged ions. The electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions forms the ionic bond.

A noble gas such as helium tends not to form compounds with other elements because its outer energy level is missing two electrons true or false?
FALSE.
What would s sulfur atom tend to do in bonding with another atom to form an ionic compound?
A sulfur atom tends to gain two electrons.
Which category of elements on the periodic table tends to create negatively charged ions?
You are good at questions dude
When water is placed in a thin glass tube it tends to climb up the walls of the tube. This effect is known as capillary action. What causes this capillary action?
Hydrogen Bonding
