Would you expect each of the following atoms to gain or lose electrons when forming ions? What ion is the most likely in each case? (And explain why) 1. Ra 2. In 3. P 4. Te 5. Br 6. Rb (I especially need help with the second portion of the question)

(I). The most likely to lose electron is Rubidium

(II). The most likely to lose electron is Bromine

Explanation:

Given that,

Radium, Indium, Phosphorus, Tellurium, Bromine and Rubidium

We know that,

Metal :

They atom which to lose electron these is called metal.

When the atom loses the electron then the positive charge come on the atom.

The most likely to lose electron is Rubidium

Non metal :

They atome which is gains electron. It is called non metal.

So, we can say that, the non metal gains electron.

When the atom gains the electron then the negative charge come on the atom.

The most likely to gain electron is Bromine

Hence, This is required answer.

i had this on my unit activity, i can you if you are a plato student. are you a plato student?
