How many electrons does Si gain or lose?
Silicon (Si) can gain or lose 4 electrons. It can either gain 4 electrons to have a stable octet configuration or lose 4 electrons to achieve a stable configuration.
How many electrons will selenium lose or gain in forming an ion?
Selenium may lose 2, 4 or 6 electrons and may gain 2 electrons.
What type of elements gain and loose electrons as they form bonds?
Metals lose electrons, nonmetals gain electrons.
What number of electrons must sulfur gain or lose to have 8 valence electrons?
Sulfur must gain two electrons.
What does a sulfur atom need to do to become an ion?
It needs to lose, or gain, electrons.
When compounds gain electrons they lose or gain energy?
Lose
When atoms lose or gain electrons they from?
When atoms lose or gain electrons, they form ions. These are charged particles.
Will Se lose or gain electrons and how many?
Se will gain electrons
The lose of electrons from a molucule is called?
Lose electrons is oxidation. To gain electrons is reduction.
How many electrons does Si gain or lose?
Silicon (Si) can gain or lose 4 electrons. It can either gain 4 electrons to have a stable octet configuration or lose 4 electrons to achieve a stable configuration.
Do metasls gain 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.
Does copper gain or lose electrons?
it loses electrons
How many electrons does shell have around the nucleus of tellurium?
Tellurium has 16 electrons in its outer shell around the nucleus.
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.
What do ions gain or lose?
Electrons
How many electrons will selenium lose or gain in forming an ion?
Selenium may lose 2, 4 or 6 electrons and may gain 2 electrons.
Does astatine lose or gain electrons?
