The periods near the top, i presume because they have less shielding from other electrons in their orbitals, therefore there will be a larger nuclear pull so easier to attract electrons. Obviously a element with a full shell or 1 or 2 electrons in it isn't really going to gain electrons and Transition metals are weird.
Hope this helps :)

Ions are electrically charged due to a gain or loss of?
Electrons
An element that has two outer electrons seeks to gain six more?
An element that has two outer electrons is carbon. Carbon would not use the energy to gain six more electrons when it can easily get rid of the two outer electrons.
Would beryllium tend to lose two electrons or gain six when forming bonds?
Beryllium would tend to lose its two electrons when forming a bond because it is easier to lose its two valence electrons rather than gain an additional five in order to obtain a full outer shell.
What is the loss and gain of electrons to form ions?
An electron or electrons is/are lost or gained to produce an ion. An atom with the same number of electrons as protons is a neutral atom. If the proton count and electron count do not match, that atom is electrically "imbalanced" and is an ion.
How do you find if an element is anion or a cation?
An element's number of protons can predict whether it will form a cation or anion. It will form a cation if it has more protons than electrons, or an anion if there are more electrons than protons.
Which atom has the greatest tendency to gain electrons Al Rb F I?
Fluorine require only one electron to fill its outer shell. Hence it has the greatest tendency to gain electrons than Al, Rb and I.
What elements bromine barium beryllium or boron has the greatest tendency to attract electrons?
Bromine has the greatest tendency to attract electrons among the elements listed. This is because it is a halogen and located in group 17 of the periodic table, meaning it has a high electron affinity and tends to gain electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
How will the tendency to gaining electrons changes as you move from right to left in periodic table?
as you move across a period, you are more and more likely to gain electrons
How the tendency change to gain electrons from left to right across a period?
The tendency to gain electrons increases from left to right across a period due to increasing effective nuclear charge, which pulls electrons closer to the nucleus, making it easier to attract additional electrons. This trend is due to the increasing number of protons in the nucleus and the decreasing atomic size as you move from left to right across a period.
How would the tendency to lose electron change as you go from left to right across a periodic table of period?
The tendency to lose electrons generally increases as you move from left to right across a period on the periodic table. This is because the elements on the left side have fewer electrons in their outer shell and are more likely to lose electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Do nonmetals loses electrons?
No. Nonmetals generally gain electrons during chemical reactions.
Does strontium have the tendency to lose or gain electrons in a chemical reaction?
You wouldn't expect strontium to gain electrons in a chemical change.
Do nonmetals lose electrons when they react?
Nonmetals tend to gain electrons when they react, rather than lose them. This is because they have fewer electrons in their outer shell and they have a higher tendency to gain electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
How are all of the nonmetal elements on the periodic table relate in term of ability to lose electron?
All non-metals have either 5, 6 or 7 electrons in their octet which makes them suitable to gain electrons to achieve stability. Hence it is difficult for electrons to lose electrons.

Would an atoms with 3 electrons in level m tend to gain or loose electrons?
An atom with 3 electrons in level M would tend to either gain 5 electrons to complete level M or lose 3 electrons to complete the previous level. The tendency would depend on the element and its electronegativity.
