lithium donates an electron to bromine
ionic bond
The lithium is oxidized an the bromine is reduced. In a chemical reaction involving a metal in elemental form, the metal will be oxidized.

Lithium Bromine
lithium donates the electron in its outer orbital to fluorine which then has a completed outer shell
LiBr would be the chemical formula. Lithium has +1 electron and Bromine has -1 electron so they combine easily.
There are two elements in the ionic compound Lithium Bromide: lithium and bromine.
Just the one electron in Lithium's outer shell is responsible for its chemical properties.
Bromine has 7 electrons in its outer shell and needs to gain one electron to have a full outer shell and become an ion. It will gain this electron from an atom that has one electron in its outer shell such as Lithium or Sodium.
ionic bond
The charge if a fluorine atom were attract an extra electron from lithium the lithium atom would be positive. -APEX
Li, or lithium, is the element most likely to lose electrons in a chemical bond. Lithium has 1 valence electron.
This element is bromine.
Lithium loses one electron when fulfilling the octet rule. A neutral atom of lithium will have the same number of electrons as protons, 3. Therefore, a lithium ion will have one less electron, 2.

That depends what kind of ion it is: If its a +1 ion then it has 2 electrons. If its a +2 ion then it has 1 electron, and If its a +3 ion then it doesn't have any electrons. _________________________________________________ Usually the Lithium atom when ionized it loses its outer shell electron and hence remains with two electrons.
