Question

Atoms with 8 valence electrons tend to________

atoms with more valence electrons tend to_________

atoms with fewer valence electrons tend to_____

Answer 1

Keep their electrons, non-reactive (they have eight and they are a noble gas, they don't want to lose it)

Gain more, increase. (They will become and anion with a negative charge, they want more to become perfect)

Lose them, they are closer to 8
