If the electrons are "stolen" from the metal by the nonmetal, an ionic bond is formed.
If the electrons are shared between the metal and the nonmetal, a covalent bond is formed.
If the electrons "resonate" between the metal and the nonmetal, a resonance bond is formed.
Fluoride is an ion formed by the nonmetal fluorine.
Neon is neither a metal nor non-metal. it is a noble gas.
When metals and non-metals come in contact with one another -metal atoms lose electrons to form positively charged ionsnon-metal atoms gain electrons to form negatively charged ions
Neon is an element with all its electron shells filled it is a noble gas.
a dipole in induced.
The electron outside the shell donate its electron to the one inside the shell
Fluoride is an ion formed by the nonmetal fluorine.
Hydrogen has 1 electron. It can easily gain or lose electron to form metal or non metal
Since it has 1 valence electrons it is a metal and also non metal because it may loose 1 electron to stabilize or also gain 1 electron to stabilize. Metals loose electrons and non-metals gain electron and hydrogen have both metallic (to loose) and non-metallic (to gain) properties.

The lightest non metal is hydrogen. It has Atomic Number 1 with just one proton and one electron.
it doesnot depend on meta l or non metal it depends on valence electron ........
Whenever an electropositive element (metal) reacts with an electronegative element (non metal) the transfer of electron takes place from metal to a non-metal forming ionic bond.
depending the types of metal or non-metal in periodic table.
Because the metal loses an electron (making it smaller) and the non metal gains that electron, making it larger.
Iodine is a nonmetal and it forms the iodide ion, I-.
yes.
