How element form ions that have a stable atomic structure like that found in a noble gas?
Ions are formed when elements gain or lose electrons.
What Atoms of the halogen family of elements typically gain two electrons when they react?
False; it reacts so that they acquire the electron structure of a noble gas.
How many electrons does a nitrogen atom need to gain in order to attrain a noble-gas?
A nitrogen atom needs to gain three electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration similar to a noble gas. This would result in the nitrogen atom having a full outer electron shell, like that of a noble gas.
What would have to gain two electrons in order to achieve the same number of electrons as a noble gas O or Sr or Na or Se or Br?
Oxygen, O ,and selenium Se. O (oxygen) would have to gain two electrons in order to achieve the same number of electrons as Ne (neon, a noble gas). Selenium would gain two to achieve the same number of electrons as Kr, krypton (noble gas). They would form the oxide, O2- and selenide Se2- ions
What gases do not gain electrons?
Noble gases
How many electrons will a sulfur atom gain or lose to achieve a noble gas structure?
A sulfur atom will gain 2 electrons to achieve a noble gas structure because sulfur is in group 16 of the periodic table and needs to fill its outer shell with a total of 8 electrons to become stable.
How can elements acquire a stable atomic structure like that found in a noble gas?
Atoms will gain, lose, or share electrons to match the number of outer shell electrons of a noble gas.

How many electrons does nitrogen have to gain in order to achieve noble gas electron configuration?
Nitrogen needs to gain 3 electrons to achieve noble gas electron configuration, similar to the nearest noble gas, which is neon. By gaining 3 electrons, nitrogen would have a full outer shell of 8 electrons, making it more stable.
What would have to gain two electrons in order to achieve the same number of electrons as a noble gas O or Sr or Na or Se or Br?
Oxygen, O ,and selenium Se. O (oxygen) would have to gain two electrons in order to achieve the same number of electrons as Ne (neon, a noble gas). Selenium would gain two to achieve the same number of electrons as Kr, krypton (noble gas). They would form the oxide, O2- and selenide Se2- ions
How are elements form ions that have a stable atomic structure like that are found in a noble gases?
There are three different ways for this. Elements can either gain electrons or lose electrons or share electrons and attain a stable noble gas electronic configuration.
What gases do not gain electrons?
Noble gases
How many electrons does a bromine atom need to gain in order to attain a noble gas electron configuration?
A bromine atom (Br) needs to gain one electron to achieve a full outer shell of electrons like a noble gas. This would give it the electron configuration of the noble gas krypton (Kr).
Why do halogens gain electrons?
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.
How many electrons does As to gain noble gas configuration?
it should gain 3 electrons
