What else can I help you with?
When atoms lose or gain electrons they from?
When atoms lose or gain electrons, they form ions. These are charged particles.
What atoms tend to gain two electrons to form a anion?
se and sometimes gain electrons. Atoms with eight valence electrons do not easily lose electrons
What chemical bond occurs when atoms lose gain or share electrons?
When atoms lose and gain electrons, an ionic bond will form. When atoms share electrons, a covalent bond will form.
What happens when electrons gain its charge?
Electrons always have their charge, when atoms gain electrons, they become ions.
Why do you think atoms lose electrons to or gain electrons from other atoms?
to become stable
Do atoms lose protons but seldom lose or gain electrons?
Atoms typically do not lose protons because that would change the identity of the element. Instead, atoms can lose or gain electrons to form ions with a different charge. Protons are not generally lost by atoms in chemical reactions.
Can atoms lose or gain atoms to form elements?
No. Atoms of an element lose or gain electrons to form ions.
What kind of atoms gain electrons?
Generally non-metals gain electrons and form anions.
When non metals react and metals react which atoms gain electrons?
Nonmetals gain electrons.
Which atoms that gain or lose an electron?
For example metals loss electrons and nonmetals gain electrons.
What is it called when gain of electrons or H?
Gain of electrons form anions (negative charged atoms).
Do atoms lose and gain electrons when a new substance is forming?
Some atoms lose electrons, some gain electrons, and some share electrons depending on what elements are involved and what compound is forming.
