No, it is not true. When metals loose electrons they become cations.
It gains three, loses five, or shares pairs of electrons
Carbon does not gain or lose 4 electrons to complete its octet because it only has 4 valence electrons to begin with. To complete its octet, carbon forms covalent bonds by sharing electrons with other atoms to achieve stability due to its electronic configuration.
Metals lose electrons, nonmetals gain electrons.
Atoms that gain electrons are called anions, and atoms that loose electrons are called cations
They will loose electrons.
Chlorine gains one electron when it forms an ion, becoming a chloride ion with a negative charge.
No, it is not true. When metals loose electrons they become cations.
It gains three, loses five, or shares pairs of electrons
Nitrogen is a unique element. It can loose one, two, three, four, or even five electrons. It can also gain one, two, or three electrons. These are not the only possibilities, however they are the most common.
As "foot" and "loose" are words, then footloose is a compound word.
Carbon does not gain or lose 4 electrons to complete its octet because it only has 4 valence electrons to begin with. To complete its octet, carbon forms covalent bonds by sharing electrons with other atoms to achieve stability due to its electronic configuration.
Metals lose electrons, nonmetals gain electrons.
Atoms that gain electrons are called anions, and atoms that loose electrons are called cations
Iron loose electrons and form cations.
It has "loose" electrons.
