Sodium would LOSE 1 electron to satisfy the octet rule.
8 electrons and yes, the Octet rule states this
This question seems a bit unclear. Perhaps it meant something like: "how many electrons can be shared with carbon atoms?" Anyway, a carbon atom can share 4 electrons with other atoms, including other carbon atoms.
Generally four carbon shares four electrons to achieve the octet
The maximum number of electrons in a Lewis structure is eight, which is an octet of electrons.

Sodium would LOSE 1 electron to satisfy the octet rule.
Strontium is part of Group IIA, which means it loses 2 valence electrons to satisfy the rule. Sr2+.
Silicon, like carbon, has four valance electrons, and needs another four to have a stable octet.
Seven electrons should be added to attain the higher noble gas configuration.
It depends which 'other atom' it is
Beryllium will lose 2 electrons to satisfy the octet rule (to fill its outer shell).
8: that's the meaning of "octet".
8 valence electrons
Potassium has only one electron in its outer shell. To satisfy the octet rule it can either receive 7 electrons or donate 1; the minor is high in energy and thus is not observed in nature. K then donates one electron to become potassium ion (K+) with the electron configuration of argon (Ar).
