Most metals and non-metals bond together to get eight electrons in their outer occupied shell. This is what is referred to as ionic bonding.
metals can conduct electricity, the valence electrons of nonmetals cannot roam freely
nonmetals are located in the right side of the periodic table. The Ionization energy(the amount of energy used to remove an electron) tends to increase from left to right across a period.It is difficult to remove the electrons from the right side because they are becoming stable
Metals typically form ionic bonds with nonmetals. Metals tend to lose electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration, while nonmetals tend to gain electrons. This transfer of electrons results in the formation of ionic bonds.
Non-ionized (stable) nonmetals, or metal ions.
Metals tend to lose electrons to form positively charged ions, while nonmetals tend to gain electrons to form negatively charged ions. When metals and nonmetals react, they often form ionic compounds through the transfer of electrons. This transfer of electrons leads to the formation of a bond between the metal and nonmetal atoms.
Metals loss electrons and nonmetals gain electrons.

Nonmetals gain electrons.
No. Nonmetals generally gain electrons during chemical reactions.
Metals typically do not lose electrons from anions, as anions are negatively charged ions formed when nonmetals gain electrons. Instead, metals are more likely to lose electrons to become cations, which are positively charged. In chemical reactions, metals tend to donate electrons to nonmetals, facilitating the formation of ionic compounds. Thus, the process involves metals losing electrons, while anions result from nonmetals gaining them.

Non-ionized (stable) nonmetals, or metal ions.
Metals are located on the left side of the periodic table, nonmetals are on the right side, and metalloids are found along the zigzag line that separates metals and nonmetals. Metals tend to lose electrons, nonmetals tend to gain electrons, and metalloids have properties that are intermediate between metals and nonmetals.
metals lose electrons when they react with a non-metal
These chemical elements are metals.
Nonmetals usually accept electrons to become negative ions (anions), e.g. Cl + e- --> Cl-.
