What else can I help you with?
What groups of atoms give off the most energy when they gain electrons?
Group 17, halogens
When non metals and metal react which atoms gain electrons?
Halogens, group 17 on the periodic table, typically gain or share one electron in covalent bonds
What chemical bond occurs when atoms lose gain or share electrons?
When atoms lose and gain electrons, an ionic bond will form. When atoms share electrons, a covalent bond will form.
What happens when electrons gain its charge?
Electrons always have their charge, when atoms gain electrons, they become ions.
Why do you think atoms lose electrons to or gain electrons from other atoms?
to become stable
What groups of atoms give off the most energy when they gain electrons?
Group 17, halogens
When atoms lose or gain electrons they from?
When atoms lose or gain electrons, they form ions. These are charged particles.
What atoms tend to gain two electrons to form a anion?
se and sometimes gain electrons. Atoms with eight valence electrons do not easily lose electrons
Which group can either lose or gain electrons?
A group that is close to having a full valence shell, like groups 5-7 on the periodic table, can either lose or gain electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. This is known as the octet rule, where atoms tend to gain or lose electrons to have a full outer shell of electrons.
When non metals and metal react which atoms gain electrons?
Halogens, group 17 on the periodic table, typically gain or share one electron in covalent bonds
What chemical bond occurs when atoms lose gain or share electrons?
When atoms lose and gain electrons, an ionic bond will form. When atoms share electrons, a covalent bond will form.
What happens when electrons gain its charge?
Electrons always have their charge, when atoms gain electrons, they become ions.
Why do you think atoms lose electrons to or gain electrons from other atoms?
to become stable
Atoms that gain electrons?
they are ions
What happens to atoms of most nonmetals when they react with other elements?
They tend to gain electrons when reacting with a metal. Metals generally are short of a full octet by 1 to 4 valence electrons. It is easier to drop 2 electrons than try to gain 6 electrons. The elements in group four can go either way, but the other metals will give up electrons, and non-metals will take them.
Do atoms lose protons but seldom lose or gain electrons?
Atoms typically do not lose protons because that would change the identity of the element. Instead, atoms can lose or gain electrons to form ions with a different charge. Protons are not generally lost by atoms in chemical reactions.
Can atoms lose or gain atoms to form elements?
No. Atoms of an element lose or gain electrons to form ions.
