. Through the transfer of electrons between atoms
The atoms of the element samarium (atomic number 62) have the electron configuration [Xe] 4f6 6s2
molecule
Chemical properties depend on electron configuration. By either gaining or losing electrons, an atom changes its electron configuration and therefore its chemical properties also change.The atoms of an element will react to achieve a noble-gas configuration. The atoms will either gain or lose electrons to achieve such a configuration.

The atomic number of zinc is 30. Its abbreviated electron configuration is [Ar]4s23d10 The full electron configuration is 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d10 (configurations for the atom in its ground state. Ions and excited atoms have different configurations).
The atoms of the element boron (atomic number 5) have the electron configuration 1s2 2s2 2p1 *or noble-gas form [He] 2s2 2p1

The radioactive element actinium (atomic number 89) has the electron configuration [Rn] 6d1 7s2
[He] 2S2 is the noble gas electron configuration for beryllium.
Every element has an electron configuration based on the number of electrons it has. However, the electron configurations of most elements are at least somewhat unstable. To obtain a more stable configuration, atoms will either share, give, or steal electrons in bonds with other atoms. In short: compounds are generally more stable than single atoms.
The element is Argon. Its configuration is 2 8 8.
