your body gains electrons all day.... you gain electrons by rubbing up against things and just walking... electrons carry over to your body and when you touch something metal or a conductor you will get shocked. :) i dont know if this is the right answer but i gave it a try
Iron can both gain and lose electrons depending on the reaction it is involved in. In general, iron tends to lose electrons to form positively charged ions, such as Fe2+ or Fe3+, but it can also gain electrons to form negatively charged ions, such as Fe2-.
Silicon will tend to gain electrons in order to achieve a stable outer electron configuration, as it has 4 valence electrons and typically forms covalent bonds with other elements by sharing electrons.
When atoms gain or lose electrons, they become negatively charged if they gain electrons (anions) or positively charged if they lose electrons (cations). These charged atoms are known as ions.
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.
Electrons: In metallic bonded materials, many of the valence electrons are in orbitals sufficiently large to include the entire solid body and can therefore move very readily from one side of the body to another.
Se will gain electrons
Electrons always have their charge, when atoms gain electrons, they become ions.
Nonmetals gain electrons in chemical reactions.
It needs to lose, or gain, electrons.
Metals lose electrons, nonmetals gain electrons.
it should gain 3 electrons
Sulfur must gain two electrons.
Phosphorus wants to gain three electrons to have 8 valence electrons.
If you mean Metals... No, they do not gain electrons, they actually lose electrons because it is a lot easy for them to lose them so they can gain stability much faster.
Phosphorus wants to gain three electrons to have 8 valence electrons.
yes it is, it might be useful to know OILRIG: oxidation is loss , reduction is gain (of electrons)
Metals loss electrons and nonmetals gain electrons.
