Want this question answered?
Strontium, as a metal, lose electrons forming divalent cations.
5s orbital
It will lose 2 to form Sr2+
Potassium would lose electrons in all its reactions especially with Bromine.
Alkali metals tend to lose electrons in chemical reactions.

You wouldn't expect strontium to gain electrons in a chemical change.

No. Nonmetals generally gain electrons during chemical reactions.
Like all metals calcium will lose electrons.
Alkali metals tend to lose electrons in chemical reactions.

I would expect the metals potassium, barium, and copper to lose electrons during chemical reactions. I would expect the nonmetals fluorine and sulfur to gain or share electrons depending of the chemical reaction.
it is a noble gas, it doesn't do either one
