Gain or electron means reduction
energy is not gained but given off during this
and also when oxidation takes place the same thing thing happens'
energy is released when a redox reaction takes place(ie both oxidation & reduction)

Which takes place during a redox reaction?
Electrons are both gained and lost. Electrons are both gained and lost.
What happens with the electrons when an atom froms a cation and an anion?
A cation is an atom that has lost one or more electrons. An anion is an atom that has gained one or more electrons.
An atom that has gained an electron is?
An atom that has gained an electron becomes a negatively charged ion.
What happens to an uncharged object when it comes in contact with a charged object.After the object that was charged lost electrons and the uncharged object gained electrons?
It becomes charged. (negatively)
How many electrons will be gained or lost by scandium?
Usually three will be lost.

What is gained in a chemical reaction?
Electrons are the ones gained or lost in a chemical reaction. Electrons are gained in oxidation and lost through the chemical reaction known as reduction.
What happens to substance when it is oxidized?
Oxidation is the loss of electrons. Reduction is the gain of electrons. The oxidizing agent is reduced. The reducing agent is oxidized. Cu goes from 0 to +2, it lost electrons S went from +6 to +4, it gained electrons I went from 0 to +5, it lost electrons N went from +5 to +4, it gained electrons.
What happens in an ionic bond?
One atom has lost electrons . And the other atom has gained electrons.
An atom that has gained an electron is?
An atom that has gained an electron becomes a negatively charged ion.
What happens to an uncharged object when it comes in contact with a charged object.After the object that was charged lost electrons and the uncharged object gained electrons?
It becomes charged. (negatively)
When electrons cannot be gained or lost they are?
Shared
Silicon how many electrons are gained or lost?
it has gain 4 electrons
How many electrons are gained when going from Al to Al3 plus?
-3 electrons are gained,i.e,3 electrons are lost by Al and 3 electrons are gained by the other atom nearby.
How many electrons will be gained or lost by scandium?
Usually three will be lost.
Are electrons lost or gained during the formation of a negatively charged ion?
They are gained.
