Beryllium has the electronic configuration 2, 2, so it is likely to lose two electrons, giving it the Helium configuration. However, in practice, beryllium compounds have a high degree of covalent character as the beryllium ion is small and very polarising.
Beryllium will lose 2 electrons to satisfy the octet rule (to fill its outer shell).
Selenium may lose 2, 4 or 6 electrons and may gain 2 electrons.
It will lose 2 electrons.

Beryllium will lose 2 electrons to satisfy the octet rule (to fill its outer shell).
Beryllium will lose 2 electrons when forming an ion because it has 4 valence electrons and tends to reach a stable electron configuration by losing electrons to achieve a full outer shell.
Se will gain electrons
Si ( Silicon) is in the same group as carbon. As a consequence it has four outer electrons. These four electrons covalently bond to other atoms, in the same manner as carbon. Si does NOT gain or lose electrons in the sense of ionisation.
it will lose 3 electrons
Selenium may lose 2, 4 or 6 electrons and may gain 2 electrons.
It will lose 2 electrons.

Beryllium has two valence electrons.
Silicon gains 4 electrons.
Phosphorus wants to gain three electrons to have 8 valence electrons.
