atoms in stable compounds almost always have a noble gas electron configuration or when representative metals and nonmetals react, thay transferelectrons in such a way that both th cation and the anion have noble gas electron configuration.

Br-, like the other halogens F-, Cl-, Br-, I-. They would obtain one electron to have noble gas electron configuration. Therefore, one negative charge.
Strontium (Sr) Sr2+ ion and krypton have he same electronic configuration
.. [Li]+ [:I:]- (put the last 2 pairs above and below the "I" this wont let me) ..
Electron is a subatomic particle. This is negative elementary electric charge.
Lithium does not have a '0' charge. Its electron configuration is 2,1. This means there is one valence electron in its outer shell. Losing this electron will make Lithium have a full shell (2 only) which all atoms try to achieve, therefore Li has a +1 charge because it loses an electron to gain noble gas configuration.

Positive 1 charge
Cs does not have a nobel gas electron configuration, as it contains one valence electron in its outermost s orbital. Be3+ also does have a nobel gas electron configuration, as this occurs when Be has a 2+ charge (the typical Be ion is Be2+).
1s2 2s2 2p6 is the electron configuration of the fluoride ion. It has a complete octet and is isoelectronic with neon. Before it becomes an ion, it is 1s2 2s2 2p5 Then it gains an electron and has a negative charge.
Cs typically has a +1 charge, meaning it loses one electron to achieve a full outer shell configuration.
The electron configuration of magnesium is 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2. Mg+ has one less electron (electrons have negative charge, so a positive charge is a lack of electrons) so you remove one from the outermost orbital: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1, or simply [Ne] 3s1.
Br-, like the other halogens F-, Cl-, Br-, I-. They would obtain one electron to have noble gas electron configuration. Therefore, one negative charge.
Electron configuration og 32Ge is in short hand:Ge => [Ar] 3d10 4s2 4p2or complete: 1s2, 2s22p6, 3s2 3p6 3d10, 4s2 4p2

The atoms of the element samarium (atomic number 62) have the electron configuration [Xe] 4f6 6s2
