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?

How many electrons does a maganese have in its outer most shell?
Magnesium has two electrons in its outermost shell.
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
How many electrons does carbon have in the outer energy level or shell?
In a neutral carbon atom, there will be 4 electrons in the outer most valence shell.
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.
What happens to atoms of most nonmetals when they react with other elements?
They tend to gain electrons when reacting with a metal. Metals generally are short of a full octet by 1 to 4 valence electrons. It is easier to drop 2 electrons than try to gain 6 electrons. The elements in group four can go either way, but the other metals will give up electrons, and non-metals will take them.
