How many electrons will barium need to gain or lose to make 8?
Barium loses 2 as it is in group 2 and it's easier to lose two than to gain more than this.
How many electrons will aluminum gain or lose when it forms an ion?
Aluminum will lose 3 electrons to form Al3+ ion.
How many electrons can nitrogen lose or gain?
Nitrogen can gain 3 electrons to achieve a full outer shell with 8 electrons, or lose 5 electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration similar to the noble gas neon.
How many electrons does Helium lose?
It will not lose any electron. As it is a noble gas (Group 18 ) it will not either gain or lose or share any electrons. It has a completely filled shell. So there is no need for losing electrons. They are also called as 'Inert Gases'.
How many electrons will a sulfur atom gain or lose to achieve a noble gas structure?
A sulfur atom will gain 2 electrons to achieve a noble gas structure because sulfur is in group 16 of the periodic table and needs to fill its outer shell with a total of 8 electrons to become stable.
