How is the tendency to gain electrons changes as you go down the 16th group of periodic table?

actually it never changes as in 16 the group all the elements have 4 valence electrons in outermost shell so they can neither accept nor lose the electns

What element on the periodic table is most likely to form a cation?
The metals have tendency to lose electrons. The elements of group-1,2 and 13 have tendency to form cations.
Which group of the periodic table has 3 electrons?
all the members of 3rd A group of periodic table have 3 electrons in outermost shell they are B ,Al, Ga, Tl and In.
Which group of elements 7 valence electrons?
The groups of electrons with 7 valence electrons are groups 7 and 17 on the periodic table.
What is a group in the periodic table called?
the vertical column is called group in the periodic table.
Which group on the periodic table tends to have seven valence electrons?
halogens or group 17
What element on the periodic table is most likely to form a cation?
The metals have tendency to lose electrons. The elements of group-1,2 and 13 have tendency to form cations.
What is an anion and where can you find it on the periodic table?
anions are negatively charged species anions are not seen on the Periodic Table. however the elements on the right end of the periodic table (except for noble gases, group 18) have a strong tendency to accept electrons are become anions
Which group of the periodic table has 3 electrons?
all the members of 3rd A group of periodic table have 3 electrons in outermost shell they are B ,Al, Ga, Tl and In.
Which group of elements 7 valence electrons?
The groups of electrons with 7 valence electrons are groups 7 and 17 on the periodic table.
What group of elements on the periodic table give electrons?
Metals give electrons.
Which element is more electronegative fluorine or oxygen?
Fluorine is the most electronegative element in the periodic table of elements. Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom or functional group to attract electrons towards itself.
Which group in the periodic tables has 7 valence electrons?
group 17, halogens
What group on the periodic table gains two electrons?
Group 16 elements.
What is a group in the periodic table called?
the vertical column is called group in the periodic table.
What is the group of elements in periodic table with eight electrons?
group 18, noble gases
Which group on the periodic table tends to have seven valence electrons?
halogens or group 17
Why are things grouped together on the periodic table?
-An element is placed in that group of periodic whose group number is equal to the number of valence electrons.
