Answer:

Metals

Explanation:

Metallic elements are renowned for their ability to freely lose electrons to form ions.

This is because metals are electropositive in nature. When a substance is electropositive, it readily wants to lose electrons and form positive ions.

Non-metals prefers to gain electrons and are electronegative.
