What is the easiest way for atoms without a full valence shell to gain a full valence shell?

Most atoms do not. For those atoms that do not have a full valence shell (which usually would contain eight electrons, except for hydrogen and helium, where it would contain two), something has to change. So nature's tendency toward a full valence shell will lead to one of two things: The gain or loss of electrons.

Not most atoms. Most atoms. Something needs to change for atoms that do not have a complete valence shelled (usually containing eight electrons other than hydrogen and helium, where there are two), Thus the tendency of nature to reach an entire valence shell leads to one of two things: electron gain or loss.

Define the following terms:
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a)An endothermic reaction is any chemical reaction that absorbs heat from its environment. The absorbed energy provides the activation energy for the reaction to occur eg Melting of ice, Evaporating liquid water

   b)An Exothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the release of energy in the form of heat or light.eg a spark, flame, or flash), electricity , a battery), or sound , explosion heard when burning hydrogen).

c)By definition an exothermic reaction produces heat as part of it’s process. The heat generated just by being alive is an exothermic process as well. And as such we become aware of when we feel “too cold” or “too hot” and try to either adjust to the conditions we are in, or minimize them, if possible. It is not merely odd, but contrary to intelligent living, that we choose to increase our discomfort and also risk our health by intentionally increasing not only the exothermic reactions we use but also maximize them to our own detriment. In short, the increased use of inefficient exothermic reactions while inexpensive in current evaluations of financial cost are extremely expensive in terms of it’s effect upon living things, including ourselves. It is as though we are choosing our homes to not only be next to a furnace, but as close as possible to the process.
