Oh, dude, aluminum loses electrons like it's trying to shed some weight before summer. It's all like, "See ya, electrons, I don't need you weighing me down." So yeah, aluminum loses electrons to become positively charged because it's all about that positive energy, you know?
Aluminum has 13 electrons. To achieve a noble gas electron configuration like neon, aluminum needs to lose 3 electrons to have the same electron configuration as neon (10 electrons). This results in the formation of the Al3+ ion.
Silicon (Si) can gain or lose 4 electrons. It can either gain 4 electrons to have a stable octet configuration or lose 4 electrons to achieve a stable configuration.
Selenium may lose 2, 4 or 6 electrons and may gain 2 electrons.
Metals lose electrons, nonmetals gain electrons.
Sulfur must gain two electrons.
Aluminium will lose 3 electrons to form Al3+ ions.
Lose
Aluminium should gain 5 electrons or lose 3 electrons. It will normally lose 3 electrons to form Al3+ ion, rather than gaining 5 electrons and forming Al5- ion.
When atoms lose or gain electrons, they form ions. These are charged particles.
Se will gain electrons
Aluminium lose 3 electrons and form the cation Al3+.
Lose electrons is oxidation. To gain electrons is reduction.
Silicon (Si) can gain or lose 4 electrons. It can either gain 4 electrons to have a stable octet configuration or lose 4 electrons to achieve a stable configuration.
If you mean Metals... No, they do not gain electrons, they actually lose electrons because it is a lot easy for them to lose them so they can gain stability much faster.
