7. Why are nonmetals more likely to react with each other by sharing electrons?
A. Nonmetals have relatively high ionization energies.
B. Nonmetals are cations that repel one another,
C. Nonmetals only lose electrons.

A. Nonmetals have relatively high ionization energies.

Explanation:

Nonmetals have high ionization energies because they tend to gain electrons in order to fill their outer shell. Also, the electrons are closer to the nucleus and require more energy to remove them.

Hope that helps.

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
