What happens when one or more valence electrons are transferred from one atom to another?

This is the loaning (by one atom) and the borrowing (by another atom) of a valence electron or electrons that creates a chemical bond. This type of bond is the ionic bond where one atom loans (or gives up) and the other borrows (or takes) an electron or electrons. In the other bond type, the covalent bond, the two atoms involved share electrons.

A charge particle that forms when one or more valence electrons are transferred from one atom to another?
Ion.
What is another name for outermost electrons?
Electrons in the outermost shell are valence electrons!
What happens to valence electrons as you move across the row?
The number of valence electrons increases.
When covalent bonds form what happens to electrons?
the valence electrons are shared.
How many valence electrons are transferred to make calcium iodide?
It takes only one valence electron to form the calcium iodide compound.
A charge particle that forms when one or more valence electrons are transferred from one atom to another?
Ion.
What are charged particles that form when one or more valence electrons are transferred from one atom to another?
Ionic bond

What happens to valence electrons as you move across the row?
The number of valence electrons increases.
Is chemical bond and valence electron similar?
No, they arent. Valence electrons are the amount of electrons the element has in its outermost shell. Electrons dont bond, they can either be shared or transferred. An ionic bond transfers electrons and a covalent bond shares electrons.
What happens to the valence electrons of magnesium oxide?
Mg donated two valence electrons to O.
How do valence electrons of atoms behave when forming an ionic bond?
Electrons are transferred when ionic bonds are formed.
Which subatomic particle moves between atoms when charge is transferred?
Valence Electrons
When covalent bonds form what happens to electrons?
the valence electrons are shared.
What happens to the valence electrons when new compounds are formed in covelant bonding?
valence electrons are shared in covalent bonding
What occurs whenever valence electrons are shared or transferred between atoms?
Covalent bond
