Which element would you expect to gain one electron in a chemical reaction?
Metals are the elements that usually lose electrons in their chemical reactions. This is because they have few electrons in their outermost shells which are easily lost.
How many electron shells would at atom have if it had 16 electrons?
3
What element has 3 full shell electrons?
This question is unclear. If you mean 3 full electron shells and nothing else, then it would be argon. But every element after argon has 3 full electron shells also, but they also have other shells with electrons. If you mean a full 3rd energy shell such as in having 3d10 electrons, then it would be Zn but Zn also has 4s2 electrons. So, the question is a vague one.
If the outer electrons of the atom of substance are held tightly to the atom you would expect that substance would be .?
an insulator
How many of atoms are in the 3rd shell of an atom with 4 shells?
If you are asking about the number of electrons then it would be 8. The first shell can hold a maximum number of 2 electrons. The second and third shell would have a maximum of 8 electrons each.

Why would you expect lithium and sulfur to have different chemical and physical properties?
Because they both have a different number of valence electrons in their outer shells, and that is what determines the properties of the element.

How many electron shells would be completely filed by a neutral xenon atom how many would be left?
5 shells and no electrons would be left over.

Who proposed that electrons orbit the nucleus in shells or definite levels?
That would be Neils Bohr
How many electron shells would be completely filled by a neutral xenon atom how many would be left over?
5 shells filled, no electrons left over.

How many electrons would be in the valence shells of iodine and chlorine?
Both iodine and chlorine are halogens (group 17) and have 7 valence electrons.
Would you expect the outer shells of copper silver and gold to be similar or different?
similar, they comprise a family
Would you expect calcium to gain or lose electrons in a chemical reactions?
Like all metals calcium will lose electrons.
If the outer electrons of the atom of substance are held tightly to the atom you would expect that substance would be .?
an insulator
