nitrogen will get noble gas configuration by adding three more electrons.
group 17 elements or the halogens
Iodine accepts one electron to achieve noble gas configuration. Strontium loses two electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. Nitrogen accepts three electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. Krypton already has a noble gas configuration.
All halogens have 7 valence electrons. They gain one electron and achieve noble gas electronic configuration
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.
Gain two electrons to have the electron configuration as Argon
The stable ions of all the elements except the Transition metals, Actinide, and Lanthanide series (that is the d and f block elements) form stable ions that are isoelectronic to a nobel gas by gaining or losing electrons in order to achieve an s2 p6 stable octet. For example, sodium will lose one electron to have the same electron configuration as neon, while nitrogen will gain three electrons to become isoelectronic to neon.
Group 17 and group 16 in general.
Iodine accepts one electron to achieve noble gas configuration. Strontium loses two electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. Nitrogen accepts three electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. Krypton already has a noble gas configuration.
All halogens have 7 valence electrons. They gain one electron and achieve noble gas electronic configuration
Fluorine gains an electron when forming bonds as fluorine is very electronegative. This behavior is due to the fact that gaining an electron gives fluorine a noble gas electron configuration.
gaining an electron

bromine has 17 electrons in the valence shell. by gaining one electron it gets the electronic configuration of the next noble gas. hence it gains one electron and forms -1 ion
oxidation is the taking away of an electron, while reduction is gaining and electron
true, just not for Boron witch tries to gain 6 electrons for a stable arrangement
All halogens or group 17 elements.
