no
Well, it depends largely on what type of reaction is occurring. Metals most often form anions, so they share electrons with non-metal cations. So, in a sense they "give away" electrons in order to become neutral.
Breaking of bonds but also formation of new bonds.
it blew you away :)
reduction
to slow down a chemical reaction you use the substance called an inhibitor. to speed up a chemical reaction you use the substance called a catalyst.
A reaction between a metal and a non-metal is an ionic bond. The metal "gives away" one (or more) of its electrons to become stable. The non-metal "accepts" them.

it gives two of its electrons away.
Corrosion. This often involves a reaction with oxygen.
Corrosion is the wearing away of a metal due to a reaction a reaction of another chemical.
Corrosion is a chemical reaction in which molecules break down due to a chemical reaction with its surroundings. Most often, corrosion is the electro-chemical oxidation of a metal (such as iron "corroding" to form iron oxide, a.k.a. rust). Corrosion is deterioration of a substance, usually metal. Corrosion is slow and continuous eating away of metal by the surrounding.
Breaking of bonds but also formation of new bonds.
It gives away electrons.
No corrosion is not a reaction of a metal with nitrogen in the air. Nitrogen in relatively innert and will not normally form chemical compounds. It is the Oxygen in the air that causes the corrosion.
the reaction type will (reduction) taken away oxygen from the reaction
Chemical bonding only involves the outermost level of electrons, valence electrons. The actual reaction takes place far away from the nucleus of the atom where the protons are. There are reactions that involve the protons, though, but they are nuclear reactions, not chemical reactions. They are usually achieved through high-speed collision in labs.
