What else can I help you with?
Would a chlorine atom lose electrons or gain electrons to become an atom?
A chlorine atom would gain one electron to become an ion because it tends to achieve a stable electron configuration by having a full outer shell of electrons.
Every Chlorine atom always has?
7 electrons in its outer shell, although it can also lose or gain electrons in chemical reactions.
What molecules are most likely to become ions?
Molecules that have a high tendency to gain or lose electrons are most likely to become ions. Common examples include metals, such as sodium and potassium, which tend to lose electrons to form positive ions, and nonmetals, such as chlorine and oxygen, which tend to gain electrons to form negative ions.
Which element will gain electrons in the reaction between calicum and chlorine?
Chlorine will gain electrons in the reaction with calcium. Chlorine is a halogen, which tends to gain an electron to achieve a full outer shell, while calcium is a metal that tends to lose electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Does bromine tend to lose or gain electrons to become an ion?
Bromine tends to gain one electron to become a Br- ion.
Would a chlorine atom lose electrons or gain electrons to become an atom?
A chlorine atom would gain one electron to become an ion because it tends to achieve a stable electron configuration by having a full outer shell of electrons.
If two chlorine atoms were to attract electrons from two calcium atoms the chlorine atoms would become charged?
negatively
Does chlorine want to gain or lose electrons?
As fluorine is a halogen (the group in which the elements are more reactive as they are one electron lesser than that of the octet configuration)and hence it can only gain electrons.
How electrons will magnesium gain or lose to become stable?
lose 2
When does a particle become charged?
gain or lose electrons
If two chlorine atoms were to attract electrons from two calcium atoms the chlorine atoms would become charged.?
negatively
What does a sulfur atom need to do to become an ion?
It needs to lose, or gain, electrons.
Why do you think atoms lose electrons to or gain electrons from other atoms?
to become stable
Every Chlorine atom always has?
7 electrons in its outer shell, although it can also lose or gain electrons in chemical reactions.
Why do Non-metal atoms gain electrons to become an ion?
bcc it's the same
