To make the atom equal you get another atom that has the amount you need to make 8 on the Bohr model, for instance Mg (Magnesium) and O (oxygen) Mg has two electrons on the outer shell/ring and oxygen has 6 electrons, to make it equal you would either add two Mg to O or you could add six O to Mg, then it would be written like
Mg ^2+ + O^2- --> MgO

How a body can be charged?
A body can become charged either by gaining or losing electrons. When electrons are transferred between objects, one object becomes positively charged (losing electrons) and the other becomes negatively charged (gaining electrons). This charge separation creates an electric field around the objects.
Which subatomic particle determines reactivity?
Electrons are the subatomic particles that determine the reactivity of an element. The number of electrons in the outermost shell of an atom, known as valence electrons, determines how likely an atom is to form chemical bonds with other atoms.
If an atom has 5 protons and 7 electrons what is the charge of the atom?
its charge is 0. Protons have a positive charge, while electrons have a negative charge (neutrons have no charge at all). So ten protons will balance out ten electrons, making the net charge 0.
What are the electrons in the outer shell?
The electrons in the outermost shell of an atom are called valence electrons. These electrons are involved in forming chemical bonds with other atoms to create molecules. The number of valence electrons influences the reactivity and chemical properties of an element.
The electrons that occupy the outermost filled shell are called?
Outer energy level electrons, or valence electron.
How do you know that nickel has a plus two charge?
because it will have more electrons add electrons= add charge
How do you make a charged atom?
Add or remove electrons.
Do you have to add the protons and electrons in order to find the atomic mass of an atom?
no, you add the protons and neutrons
How do you deconstruct Ionized Plasma to its gas form?
Add electrons.
When atoms become ions their outer most shells of electrons become?
they add or loose electrons from the outer most shells
How many electrons can an oxygen atom add to its outer shell?
2
Chemical bonds have what kind of electrons?
well when chemical bond for them to be stable they have to form a octet where all the valance electrons add up to 8.
How many electrons does lithium need to add to satisfy the Octet Rule?
Seven electrons should be added to attain the higher noble gas configuration.
What are the total numbers of valence electrons in LI2O?
To find the total number of valence electrons in Li2O, we add the valence electrons of lithium (1 valence electron each) to the valence electrons of oxygen (6 valence electrons). So, Li2O has 2 (from Li) + 6 (from O) = 8 valence electrons.
How do you know the number of elements in an atom?
you see how many electrons and protons it has and add them together
The ion NO- has how many valence electrons?
The NO- ion would have 11 valence electrons. This is because nitrogen typically has 5 valence electrons and oxygen typically has 6 valence electrons in their neutral states, so NO- would have 5 + 6 = 11 valence electrons.
How many valence electrons does selenium (Se) have?
6. Valence electrons are the electrons in the s and p orbitals. Keeping this in mind, Se has the 4s orbitals filled (2 electrons) and has 4 electrons filled in the 4p orbital (4p4). 2+4 = 6.
