I would expect the metals potassium, barium, and copper to lose electrons during chemical reactions. I would expect the nonmetals fluorine and sulfur to gain or share electrons depending of the chemical reaction.
The newest officially discovered elements are Ununquadiumand Ununhexium so, we'll focus on those.Ununquadium will be part of the Carbon series, so we would expect it to have properties similar to those elements (e.g. 4 electrons in the outer shell). The closest relation to it in that group would be Lead.Ununhexium will be part of the Oxygen series, so, again, we would expect it to have properties similar to those elements (e.g. 6 electrons in the outer shell). The closest relation to it in that group would be Polonium, which is also the first radioactive element.
Rhenium is the element most similar to technetium in terms of chemical properties and behavior due to their adjacent positions in the periodic table. Both technetium and rhenium are transition metals with similar electron configurations, allowing them to exhibit analogous oxidation states and reactivity. Additionally, both elements are used in nuclear medicine applications for diagnostic imaging.
Carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur are the most abundant chemical elements found in living cells. These elements make up the building blocks of biological molecules such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and carbohydrates. Additionally, smaller amounts of other elements like calcium, potassium, and magnesium are also essential for various cellular functions.
An outer electron configuration with one or two electrons in the outermost shell would be expected to belong to a reactive metal. This is because metals tend to lose electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration, and elements with one or two electrons in the outer shell are more likely to lose those electrons easily.
Ekasilicon (SiH4) can form a maximum of 4 chemical bonds. Silicon has 4 valence electrons which it can share with other atoms in order to achieve a stable octet configuration, resulting in the formation of 4 chemical bonds.
Metals are the elements that usually lose electrons in their chemical reactions. This is because they have few electrons in their outermost shells which are easily lost.
Elements in a same group have same number of valence electrons and hence similar physical and chemical properties.
Calcium is expected to lose electrons in a chemical reaction because it is a metal located in group 2 of the periodic table, which typically loses electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. Calcium will typically form a 2+ cation by losing 2 electrons in reactions.
The nucleus of an atom is not involved in chemical reactions. The nucleus contains protons and neutrons, which do not participate in chemical bonding or reactions. Chemical reactions involve the electrons in the outer energy levels of an atom.
same number of valence electrons, so are their chemical properties more or less the same.
You wouldn't expect strontium to gain electrons in a chemical change.
Tungsten generally loses electrons when forming bonds, it is a metal
Uranium and neodymium are very different chemical elements.
Chemical reactions are either; endothermic, removing energy from the environment, or exothermic, emitting heat upon the environment.
I would expect all elements in group 1 to have similar chemical behavior to that of sodium, except for hydrogen. Hydrogen is not a metal, but has only 1 valence electron like the other elements in group 1.
I expect elements with similar properties in the periodic table to be most similar. For example, elements in the same group or period tend to have similar chemical characteristics due to their similar electron configurations.
