Firstly I would like to correct you on your grammar. The question should in fact ask 'which' element gains 5 electrons. The question is also flawed form the start because more than one element gains 5 electrons.
All elements in group 3 of the Periodic Table have 5 spaces in the outer shell. All elements want to feel complete, and the maximum amount of elements on the outer shell is 8. Therefore 3 + 5 = 8. So hey presto this is my answer to you. ~K :)
Elements that lend electrons are called metals.
Metal atoms can lend electrons. Nonmetal atoms borrow electrons. The number of electrons an atom can lend or borrow is called its oxidation number.
Metals lose electrons.
Metals give electrons.

bonds
For an neutral element that has the same number of electrons and protons, the element with 11 electrons is Na, sodium.
The Element Neon has 10 protons and 10 electrons.
The Group Number of the Element you're working on determines the number of Valence Electrons. Valence electrons are electrons in the outside energy level.
The element with 5 fewer electrons than sodium is not a gaseous element!
bonds
It borrows electrons
Calcium
Silver has 47 electrons.
Terbium Tb
Gallium
photon
Magnesium

Fluorine is the name of the element and has 9 electrons. Fluoride is the name of the halide ion, carries a 1- charge and has 10 electrons.
