When an atom completely gives up its valence electrons to another atom what kind of bond do they form?
When an atom completely gives up its valence electrons to another atom, they form an ionic bond. In this type of bond, the atom that loses electrons becomes a positively charged ion (cation), while the atom that gains the electrons becomes a negatively charged ion (anion). The electrostatic attraction between these oppositely charged ions holds them together, resulting in the formation of an ionic compound. This type of bonding typically occurs between metals and nonmetals.
What is the volume of an atom is taken up by?
The atom's electrons.
When an atom gives away electrons to another atom what happens?
When an atom gives away electrons to another atom, it becomes positively charged (as it loses negatively charged electrons) and forms a positively charged ion. The atom that gains electrons becomes negatively charged and forms a negatively charged ion. This transfer of electrons results in the formation of an ionic bond between the two atoms.
Why does an element have a positive charge if it gives up 2 electrons?
Because electrons have a negative charge. If you take two negatively charged particles from a neutral atom, the atom (well, ion, technically) will have to be positively charged in order for the charges to balance.
What is an atom simply made up of?
An atom is made up of neutrons, electrons and protons.
An atom that gives up electrons becomes an?
This atom become a cation (positive charge).
What is hydrogen called when it gives up electrons?
When a hydrogen atom loses an electron, it is simply a proton.
What is formed when a atom gives up a electron?
When an atom gives up one or more electrons to another atom, an ionic bond is formed. Atoms are the basic unit of a chemical element.
When an atom completely gives up its valence electrons to another atom they form a bond that is considered to be?
ionic
What is formed in a metallic when atoms give up electrons?
When an atom gives up one or more electrons to another atom, an ionic bond is formed. Atoms are the basic unit of a chemical element.
When an atom is negative or positive?
An atom is negative when there are more electrons which gives it that negative charge. An atom is positive when there are less electrons than protons.
What gives an atom the ability to react with another atom to form a compound?
its electrons
What part of an atom gives it chemical characteristics?
These are the electrons.

How does an atom becoming a negativity charged ion?
It must take electrons from either another atom or be ionized. If it takes electrons from another atom then it has more electrons than protons, which gives it a negative charge.
What is the volume of an atom is taken up by?
The atom's electrons.
What happens when one or more valence electrons are transferred from one atom to another?
This is the loaning (by one atom) and the borrowing (by another atom) of a valence electron or electrons that creates a chemical bond. This type of bond is the ionic bond where one atom loans (or gives up) and the other borrows (or takes) an electron or electrons. In the other bond type, the covalent bond, the two atoms involved share electrons.
