Most metals and nonmetals bond together to get eight electrons in their outer occupied shell?

Most metals and nonmetals form chemical bonds by transferring electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration with a filled outer shell, usually with 8 electrons. This transfer of electrons leads to the formation of ionic bonds between metals and nonmetals.


Covalent compounds form between?

Covalent compounds form between nonmetals by sharing electron pairs to achieve a stable electron configuration. This sharing of electrons allows both atoms to fill their outer electron shells and form a stable molecule.


How many electrons will a metal generally have in its outer energy level?

Every transition metal has a different number of electrons, they go from 21-30 electrons, then 39-48 elctrons, then 71-80 electrons, and 103-112 electrons.

How many electrons are in oxygen's outer level?

The word "valance" is used to describe electrons in the outer-most energy level of an atom. Oxygen has six valance electrons.


Why do most of the elements on the periodic table tend to form ions?

The most stable atom is one with a full shell, so metals will lose electrons to drop down to a full shell, while nonmetals will gain electrons to fill their outer shell
