Chemical Bonds
Krypton tends to neither lose nor gain electrons since it has a full outer electron shell, making it stable.
An atom with single electron in its outermost shell
False. Alkali metals lose one electron to form a stable electron configuration with a full outer shell of electrons, which is the stable electron configuration for these elements.
After electron capture a neutrino is released.
they lose one electron
It loses an electron.
Sodium wants to lose one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration, similar to the noble gas neon.
The electron does not lose its energy. The electron gets absorbed by the "wall" and the electron/energy becomes part of the "wall" system.
Electrons lose in case of potassium. It looses 1 electron.
lose only one electron
Potassium has one electron in its outer shell. It will lose this electron to achieve the noble gas electron configuration of argon in its previous full shell.
No, lithium loses one electron to form a compound. It is an alkali metal with an electron configuration of 1s² 2s¹, so it tends to lose one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration.
This atom lose an electron.
Sodium will lose 1 electron to form a sodium ion.
When you lose an electron, you become positively charged because you have more protons than electrons. When you gain an electron, you become negatively charged because you have more electrons than protons. This process is known as ionization.
The respective electron has to lose energy.
It shrinks loosing an electron.
