sodium (Na)
Sodium atoms lose one electron when reacting with a nonmetal.
Chlorine atoms gain an electron when reacting with a metal, or share an electron when reacting with other nonmetals.
Aluminum loses three electrons when reacting with a nonmetal.
Assuming that ze is supposed to be Xe, which is the noble gas xenon, which undergoes very few reactions and definitely does not lose an electron when it does.
which of these is an extensive property of a substance? is it color, hardness, malleability, or volume
Hydrogen
Na, sodium, should have the lowest first ionization energy of those four elements.
Electron orbital
Fluorine.
Arsenic.
Li, or lithium, is the element most likely to lose electrons in a chemical bond. Lithium has 1 valence electron.
Be
Francium (Fr)
yes
Steal an electron from an atom of a different element.
This element is rubidium.
Alkaline Earths will most easily lose an electron. This is because the have a smaller alkali radii than alkali metals causing them to not be as tightly bound to the nucleus. This makes the more readily lose their electrons.
lose an electron and become a positive ion.
Lithium would be most likely to lose electrons in a chemical bond.
The Alkali Metals, which are the elements in Group 1 of the periodic table, each have one lone electron in their valence shell. And each of these elements wants to get rid of that single electron. These metals, which include lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, caesium and francium, are the most likely to lose electrons.
