Answer:
Likely to gain electrons
Explanation:
The atom shown is likely to gain additional electrons to complete its electronic configuration.
- Since this is a neutral specie, the number of protons and electrons are the same.
- The atom has 16 electrons
- the number of valence electrons is 6
- If the atom gains two additional electrons, the octet configuration is attained
- Also, the atom can lose 6 electrons to become an octet
The atom will prefer to gain additional 2 electrons to give an octet configuration.
