How many electrons would an atom of magnesium have to lose to have a stable octe?

It'll have to lose two to have a stable octet.


How many electrons are called are needed in the outer energy level of most atoms for the atom to be stable?

Eight electrons, called an octet, are needed by most atoms in order to be stable.


How many valence electrons are transferred from the calcium atom to iodine in the formatoin of the compound calcium iodide?

during the formation of calcium iodide,calcium donates two of its +ve ions each to a fluorine atom(2 in number) thereby making its octet and also fulfills the octet formation of each of fluorine atom..


What is the octet rule and how is it useful in drawing Lewis Dot Structures?

Most elements have a stable electron arrangement when they have 8 electrons in their outer shell (hydrogen and helium are exceptions, they are stable with only 2 electrons in their outer shell), and an octet is 8 of something, hence the octet rule. Lewis dot diagrams are drawn to show how many electrons are associated with any given atom, and how the atoms are shared, in the case of covalent bonding. Generally, each atom winds up with 8 electrons. Not hydrogen.


How many electron fluorine lost or gain?

Electron configuration of Florine: 1s^2 2s^2 2p^5 Electron configuration of Florine with an extra electron: 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 An extra electron in places in the P orbital, so the exponent changes from a 5 to a 6. Note: The "^" symbol means the the following number is in the form of a superscript.

eight. it is important to obtain octet so that elements become stable.

How many electrons would fluorine have to gain or lose too become stable?

Fluorine has 7 valence electrons. In order to become stable, Florine will share 1 electron with another atom to get 8 electron and become stable.


How many valence elec does rn have?

Radon, being a noble gas, has 8 valence electrons, giving it a stable octet.


How many electrons would fluorine have to gain or lose too become stable what will be the stable ion's charge?

Fluorine will gain one electron to form F- (or fluoride) ion. Fluoride ion has a charge of -1.
