This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a Periodic Table.
it should gain 3 electrons
It should gain 2 electrons
it should lose 3 electrons
The number of electrons should balance the number of protons, which is denoted by the atomic number.
one valence electron
It should lose two electrons
8

6 protons 6 neutrons 6 electrons. If you can use Wikianswers then you should know how to use Google
Since Be is in the 2nd group, it should have 2 valence electrons and Cl should have 7 (in 7th group), and since there is 2 Cl, then there is 14. Add 14 Cl electrons and 2 Be electrons to get 16 electrons (valence, not total)
In the Lewis structure of SO2, there should be 18 valence electrons - 6 from sulfur and 6 from each oxygen atom.
Seven electrons should be added to attain the higher noble gas configuration.
