Does group 2A gain electrons or lose electrons in order to achieve a noble gas configuration?
loses 2 electrons to achieve a noble gas configuration
How many electrons need to be removed from boron to form noble gases?
Boron must give up 3 electrons in order to achieve a noble-gas electron configuration.
Valency is the number of electrons an atom must gain or lose in order to?
in order to attain the nearest noble gas configuration.
How many electrons does phosphorus have to gain in order to achieve a noble gas electron configuration?
Phosphorus has to gain a total of 3 electrons to achieve a noble gas configuration. You can find this for any non-metal because the last digit of its group number is the number of valence electrons it has. For example Phosphorus has 5 and Sulfur has 6. In order to achieve a noble gas electron configuration, you must have 8 valence electrons, so phosphorus must gain 3.
What do atoms other than the Noble Gases have to do in order to become stable?
Atoms gain, lose or share electrons and try to attain noble gas configuration.
Does group 2A gain electrons or lose electrons in order to achieve a noble gas configuration?
loses 2 electrons to achieve a noble gas configuration
How many electrons would calcium have to lose or gain to have to have 8 valence electrons?
It needs to lose to in order to have the same number of outer electrons as Argon. The Noble gas configuration of [Ar]4s2 confirms this.
How many electrons does nitrogen gain in order to achieve a noble gad electron configuration?
nitrogen has 5 valence electrons. It should gain 3 electrons to achieve a noble gas configuration.
How many electrons does silver have to gave up in order to achieve a pseudo-noble-gas electron configuration?
Silver needs 7 more electrons to reach a "pseudo-noble gas" configuration.
