If you're talking about covalent bonding, they're just called atoms, and if you're talking about ionic bonding, they're called ions. Positively charged ions are called cations, and negatively charged ions are called anions.

When an atom gains or loses electrons it is called an?
covalent/ionic bonding.
What is the relationship between atom and element?
They use a force called bonding where they either gain or lose an electron.
What is the name for the outermost energy level of an atom that can participate in bonding?
This is called the valence shell
What is important about the valence electrons?
When an atom undergoes chemical change, only the outermost (valence electrons) are involved.
When an element gives an electron to another element is called?
This is usually part of the bonding process called ionic bonding.
What is the atom the involved in bonding are called?
If the bonding is covalent, then they are just called atoms but when in ionic bonding they are called ions.
What part of an involved in a chemical bonding?
The outer shell electrons of an atom are involved in chemical bonding
electrons involved in bonding between atom are?
Electrons involved in bonding between atoms are valence electrons.
What part of the atom is involved in chemical bonding with other atom?
the answer is the outermost electron shell
Which subatomic particles are invovled in chemical bonding?
The outer, or valance electrons of the atom are that which is involved in bonding.
Which electrons in an atom are involved in the bonding between atoms?
Valence electrons
What part of atoms are involved in chemical bonding?
The valence electrons of the atom.
What part of that atom is involved in bonding?
The outer or valence electrons are the ones involved in bonding.Valence electrons
Which electrons are involved in bonding'?
At times the electrons involved in bonding are shared equally between the nuclei of two atoms and the bond is called a pure covalent bond. More often, however, the sharing is unequal and the electrons spend more time around the nucleus
When an atom loses or gains an atom its called?
covalent/ionic bonding.
What parts of the atom are involved in chemical bonding?
electron of outer most shell.
What part of an atom is important in bonding?
The part of the atom that is used in bonding is the electron. More specifically, valance electrons which are the outer shell of the electron.
