Generally speaking, the metals give away electrons during a reaction. Not all metals are equally reactive, however. The metals of group 1 (the alkali metals) all have 1 valence electron. This 1 electron is given away very easily, making this group the most reactive of all the metals. They are so reactive, in fact, that these elements do not exist by themselves; only in compounds.

What happens when a chlorine atom gains an electron in its valence shell?
It becomes an ion.
If a chlorine atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called an?
Ion. Any atom that loses or gains an electron becomes an ion.
If an atom of iodine gains one electron it will have the same number of valence electrons as which element?
The same number of valence electrons as xenon.
When an atom gains an electron to create full valence it results in that atom having a net charge of what?
If one electron is gained, then it has a charge of -1.
What group in the periodic table gains electrons most readily and why?
Group-17 in the periodic table gains electron most readily. The elements in this group require only one electron to complete its octet.
What does an atom release more easily when it gains an electron?
An Electron
What happens when a chlorine atom gains an electron in its valence shell?
It becomes an ion.
What does chlorine become when it gains one valence electron?
A negatively charged "ion".
If a chlorine atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charges particle called an?
Ion. Any atom that loses or gains an electron becomes an ion.
If a chlorine atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called an?
Ion. Any atom that loses or gains an electron becomes an ion.
When a atom gain or looses a valence electron it become a charged particle called an?
When an atom gains or looses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called an ion
When an atom gains or lose a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called an?
Ion.
When an Atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charge particle called a?
Ion.
If an atom of iodine gains one electron it will have the same number of valence electrons as which element?
The same number of valence electrons as xenon.
Why do the sodium ion and the chloride ion form an ionic bond instead a covalent bond?
because they can each get a full valence shell by combining electrons, and have no need to share with other elements. (NA gives away one electron, giving it eight in its valence shell, and CL gains that electron, which also makes its valence shell eight).
If a chlorine atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called?
ion
Why are lithium and sodium in the same group in the periodic table?
Elements that are in the same group of the periodic table have the same number of electrons in their outer energy level. In the case of lithium and sodium, they each have one electron in their farthest shell.
