Atoms gain or lose?
they can do both
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 is a reason for atoms to not gain lose or share electrons?
This depends on the electronegativity of atoms.
When atoms lose or gain electrons they are called what?
ion
Why do you think atoms lose electrons to or gain electrons from other atoms?
to become stable
Can atoms lose or gain atoms to form elements?
No. Atoms of an element lose or gain electrons to form ions.
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.
When atoms lose or gain electrons they from?
When atoms lose or gain electrons, they form ions. These are charged particles.
What 2 atoms produce when they combine?
When two atoms combine, they form a molecule. The type of molecule formed depends on the atoms involved and the type of bond they create (ionic, covalent, or metallic). The combination of two atoms allows them to share, gain, or lose electrons to achieve a more stable configuration.
Atoms gain or lose?

What is the statement that when atoms combine to form molecules they general lose or gain or sharevalence electrons until they attain or share eight?
This statement is known as the octet rule. It states that atoms tend to combine in such a way that they either gain, lose, or share electrons to achieve a full outer shell of eight electrons (octet) to attain stability.
Do atoms of nonmetals usually lose electrons when they combine with other atoms?
No, atoms of nonmetals usually gain electrons when they combine with other atoms. Nonmetals have a tendency to attract electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration, typically by forming covalent bonds with other nonmetals or by gaining electrons to form anions.
Do atoms of nonmetals usually gain or share electrons when they combine with other atoms?
Yes.
Do atoms of group 2 lose or gain?
They try to lose usually.
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 type of bonds are formed when metal atoms combine with nonmetal Atoms?
Ionic bonds are formed when metal atoms combine with nonmetal atoms. Metal atoms tend to lose electrons to form positive ions, while nonmetal atoms tend to gain electrons to form negative ions, resulting in the attraction between the oppositely charged ions forming the ionic bond.
Do atoms of a covalent bond lose or gain elecrons?
do atoms of a covalent bond lose r share electrons
