Tin can act as both an electron donor and an electron acceptor, depending on the chemical reaction it is involved in. In some reactions, tin can donate electrons to other elements, while in others, it can accept electrons.
The answer is acids.... "acids are most broadly defined as compounds that are electron pair acceptors."
Yes, when a molecule gives up an electron, it becomes ionized because it now has a net positive charge. Additionally, the molecule is oxidized because it loses an electron, which is a defining characteristic of oxidation in chemical reactions.
Krypton has the same electron configuration as phosphorus in a PCl3 molecule. Both have the electron configuration of [Ne] 3s^2 3p^3.

The molecule that precedes the electron transport chain in both photosystem I and photosystem II is plastoquinone. Plastoquinone accepts electrons from the reaction center chlorophyll in both photosystems and transfers them to the cytochrome b6f complex to ultimately generate ATP.

No, it is not correct to say that the bond energy always decreases when a diatomic molecule loses an electron. F2 and O2 are counterexamples to this point. When a molecule loses an electron, it will come from the highest occupied molecular orbital. In both O2 and F2, this MO is an antibonding MO. Removing an electron from an antibonding MO *increases* the bond energy.
To determine the structural geometry of a molecule, structural pair geometry must be used. These are the amounts of pairs found surrounding a specific molecule, and they are unique to each type of atom.
Every molecule has a polarity. They can either be non-polar (same on both sides) or polar (different on both sides). For example the molecule CO2 is a non-polar molecule. H20 (water) is a polar molecule (due to Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory (VSEPR)).
Both "donator" and "donor" are acceptable terms, but "donor" is the more commonly used and recognized form in English. It is recommended to use "donor" for clarity and consistency.
