What is a chemical bond formed by atoms losing or gaining electrons?
metallic bond
What is a substance that has lost or gained electrons?
Most atoms have the ability to lose electrons, given the conditions are favorable, e.g. in a chemical reaction, but the ones that loose their electrons easiest are the ones with only a few electrons in their outer shell, such as the alkali metals and alkaline earth metals which only have 1 and two electrons, respectively.
What is formed when atoms share stabilizing electrons?
Bonds are formed on sharing electrons. Covalent bonds are formed.
When forming compounds atoms try to gain or lose what?
In forming compounds, atoms are engaged in either gaining or losing electrons. They may also share electrons, but that is also a form of gaining or losing electrons.
Bond formed when electrons are formed between atoms?
covalent bond
What is a chemical bond formed by atoms losing or gaining electrons?
metallic bond
How is a cat-ion formed?
cations are positively charged ions formed by loss of electrons from the neutral atoms having 1,2,3 valence electrons
What is a chemical bond formed by atoms losing or gaining electrons called?
This chemical bonding is called ionic bonding.

What is formed when atoms share stabilizing electrons?
Bonds are formed on sharing electrons. Covalent bonds are formed.
What kind of chemical bond is formed when electrons are transferred from atoms to atoms?
A covalent bond is formed when electrons are transferred from atom to atom.
When forming compounds atoms try to gain or lose what?
In forming compounds, atoms are engaged in either gaining or losing electrons. They may also share electrons, but that is also a form of gaining or losing electrons.
How is a covalent formed between atoms?
the atoms share electrons
When electrons are shared between Atoms what kind of bond is formed?
Covalent bonds and dative (coordinate) bonds are formed are formed by sharing electrons between the bonding atoms.
What structure will atoms have after losing or gaining electrons?
a noble gas
What are three differences between ionic bonds and covelant bonds?
Ionic bonds are formed between metal atoms and non-metal atoms. The metal atoms lose electrons and form positive ions, but the non-metal atoms gain electrons and form negative ions. Since the atoms both now have opposite charges, they are attracted to each other and form an ionic bond.However, covelant bonds are formed between two or more non-metal atoms. The atoms share electrons rather than losing or gaining electrons from each other.
When molecules are formed atoms?
share electrons
