Carbon can bond with many elements, including hydrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, and nitrogen.
It is true that elements on the left side of the periodic table tend to bond with elements on the right side of the table. Those on the left are called metals, and those on the right are called non metals, and a metal plus a non metal form an ionic bond. An example might be Na and Cl to make NaCl.
group 17 (halogens)Fluorine belongs to the Halogens Family in Colom 17 and in row 2halogens are located in group 17 of the periodic table. and are non metallic. All halogens have 7 electrons in their outer shells, giving them an oxidation number of -1. fluorine is a Halogen. Flourine is given by the symbol F. . and has he atomic number of 9. at 298 kelvins fluorine is a pale yellow gas (gas at room temp 25 degrees celsius)Family: Halogen family
No, not always. Some can exist in what's called a "monatomic state". That is, they exist as a single atom, either due to artificial separation from other atoms, or because they have no need to bond to other atoms. Atoms tend to bond to other atoms to become more stable, but atoms that are already stable tend not to bond. Examples of such are the noble gasses, which rarely bond except through synthesis.
Fluorine is a nonmetal. It is located in group 17 of the periodic table. It tends to obtain an electron to form the fluoride ion.Fluorine is the element with highest electronegativity. So it does not tend to lose electrons. It is in the 17th group of the periodic table.
They are reactive, but selective with elements that they will bond with. Most bond with oxygen and oxygen bonds with itself. Elements in the same families tend to bond with other elements similarly, but there are no hard and fast rules.

The Halogens, Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and Astatine.
they are noble gases, they tend not to react with anything

If you think to halogens they form ionic bonds with metals.
You probably mean which elements tend to bond. The answer is: all of them except the ones in the last column (Helium, Neon, Argon, Krypton, Xenon and Radon).
Generally, elements on the right hand side of the periodic table and also carbon. The Left hand side will tend to form ionic bonds
They tend to gain electrons when reacting with a metal. Metals generally are short of a full octet by 1 to 4 valence electrons. It is easier to drop 2 electrons than try to gain 6 electrons. The elements in group four can go either way, but the other metals will give up electrons, and non-metals will take them.
lose
Not much. Noble gases have full valence shells, or full outermost shells, so they don't tend to bond with many other elements. They are also the most stable of all the element families.
