1. Why do atoms lose or gain electrons?
- Atoms or elements, when they exist as ions, they want to lose/gain or share
electrons to attain a stable electronic configuration and achieve an
octet/duplet valence shell structure resembling that of noble gases. Hence
cations react to lose electrons, anions react to gain electrons. They can only
form ions when they combine with other atoms that can donate or accept
electrons.

2. How are ions formed?

- Ions are formed when a neutral atom loses or gains electrons. This loss or
gain of electrons imparts a charge (positive or negative) to the neutral atom
making it an ion because of the unequal number of protons and electrons.
Metal atoms donate electrons to non-metal atoms, resulting in the
formation of positive metal ions and negative non-metal ions. In other
words, Ions are formed by the addition of electrons to, or the removal of
electrons from, neutral atoms or molecules or other ions; by combination of
ions with other particles; or by rupture of a covalent bond between two
atoms in such a way that both of the electrons of the bond are left in
association with one of the formerly bonded atoms.
3. What happens to an atom if it loses electron? Gains electron?
- When an atom loses electrons, it forms a positive ion (cation). This is
because there now more positively charged protons than negatively
charged electrons. A positive ion is also called a cation. When an atom gains
electrons, it forms a negative ion (anion). This is because there are now
more negatively charged electrons than positively charged protons. A
negative ion is also called an anion.

4. Differentiate cation from anion.

- An anion may be defined as an atom or molecule that is negatively charged.
A cation may be defined as an atom or molecule that is positively charged.
Negative ions are always formed as non-metals while Positive ions are
always formed as metals. Anions and cations are both ions. They have an
opposite electrical charge, therefore they get attracted to each other.

5. What groups of element lose electrons? Gains electrons?

- The groups of elements that lose electrons are: group 1, 2 and 13. While the
groups of elements that gain electrons are: group 15, 16 and 17.
- Metallic elements tend to lose electrons to become a positive cation and
 non-metallic elements tend to gain electrons to become a negative anion,
so in reactions involving these two groups, there is electron transfer from
the metal to the non-metal.
