Which element wants to gain valence electrons while bonding? a. Neon (Ne)

b. Fluorine (FI)

c. Lithium (Li)

d. Magnesium (Mg)

b. Fluorine (FI)

Explanation:

From the given choices, only fluorine wants to gain valence electrons while bonding.

This is because fluorine is the most electronegative specie from the given choices. An electronegative substance have a high tendency to attract electrons to itself in a bond.

Neon is a noble gas and it is stable. Lithium and Magnesium are metals that are electropositive. They prefer to lose electrons than to gain electrons.

That result from subduction of oceanic plates beneath lighter continental plates. most of the earth's volcanoes are located around the pacific ring of fire because that the location of most of the earth's subduction zones.
