Bromine (Br) tends to gain electrons. As a halogen, it has seven valence electrons and seeks to achieve a full octet by gaining one additional electron. This makes bromine more likely to form negative ions (anions) in chemical reactions.
Bromine (Br) gains electrons to become an ion. In its elemental form, bromine has seven valence electrons and needs one more to achieve a stable octet configuration. By gaining an electron, it forms a negatively charged ion known as bromide (Br⁻).
Boron can lose 3 electrons from its valence shell that is 2 in 2s & 1 in 2p sub-shell, wheras it cannot gain electron b'coz of its electropositive nature & it has less electron affinity.
sodium must lose 1 electron, helium is a noble gas it is in group 8 check your periodic table, sufide ion must gain 2 electrons
Bromine gain an electron in chemical reactions.
The neutral atom has 35 electrons.
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.

Bromine tends to gain one electron to become a Br- ion.
Boron can lose 3 electrons from its valence shell that is 2 in 2s & 1 in 2p sub-shell, wheras it cannot gain electron b'coz of its electropositive nature & it has less electron affinity.
Bromine (Br) has 35 electrons, while Krypton (Kr) has 36 electrons. To have the same electron configuration as Krypton, Bromine would need to lose one electron.
Nitrogen atoms gain 3 electrons and form the nitride ion, N3-. Nitrogen atoms also form covalent bonds where they share 3 electrons and do not become ions. Bromine atoms gain 1 electron and form the bromide ion, Br-. Bromine atoms also form covalent bonds when they share 1 electron and do not become ions.
Halogens have 7 valence electrons, in order to become a noble gas you need 8 so instead of losing electrons, it would be easier just to gain 1. That would make Halogens a negative 1 If you do the dot structure you can see that there is only room to gain 1 electron when forming a bond.

Yes, cobalt can form an ionic bond with bromine. Cobalt can lose electrons to form a cation (Co2+) while bromine can gain electrons to form an anion (Br-), resulting in the formation of an ionic compound.
Oxidation is loss of electrons and reduction is gain of electrons. In this case the Cl2 molecule is changed to two Cl- ions by gaining electrons, so the Cl2 is reduced. The Br in the NaBr salt is in the form of Br- ions. The Br- ions are changed to neutral Br atoms (a Br2 molecule) by losing electrons and so are oxidised.
Bromine gain an electron in chemical reactions.
Boron, Krypton,Neon, and Radon Krypton, Neon and Radon do not gain electrons. Because an atom wants to have eight electrons in their valence shell or their outermost shell, and Krypto, Neon and Radon are Noble Gases which already have eight in their valence shells, so they don't lose or gain electrons. And as for Boron it want's to gain 5 electrons because it only has three in its valence shell.
