Non metals gain electrons from the metals to have an octet structure.

In an ionic bond, nonmetals are most likely to<span> gain electrons. 

That is because they need 8 valence electrons to have a full octet, so they need alittle more to have 8, meaning they could be stable. </span>

Why chlorine is more reactive than hydrogen​
Lynna [10]

Answer:

<em>Hi Todoroki here!!! </em>

Explanation:

Chlorine has the electron configuration [Ne]3s 2 3p 5, with the seven electrons in the third and outermost shell acting as its valence electrons. Like all halogens, it is thus one electron short of a full octet, and is hence a strong oxidising agent, reacting with many elements in order to complete its outer shell.

<em>Your welcome!!</em>

c) A substance has a high melting point and conducts electricity. What type of structure does it have
trapecia [35]

Answer:

Metallic structure

Explanation:

They have a high melting point due to the strong forces of attraction between the positive ions (cations) and the delocalised electrons. Moreover, they conduct electricity due to the sea of delocalised electrons.

<em>[Extra: It could be an ionic compound since they also have a high melting point, however they only conduct electricity in liquid or aqeouus state.]</em>
