Scandium (Sc), which has an atomic number of 21, can lose three electrons from its outermost shell, typically forming a +3 oxidation state. It typically does not gain electrons due to its position in the Periodic Table and its tendency to form metallic bonds. Thus, scandium primarily loses electrons rather than gaining them.
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.
It will lose 2 electrons.
