it would need to gain 2 more for it to achieve a stable configuration
the best way to remember this is the noble gasses all have 8 valence electrons and that they are the most stable elements on the periodic table
Gold is actually very soft. If rings were made of pure gold they would bend and become disfigured. Other elements are added to give the ring its stability.

Any compound with multiple covalent bonds
Answer:
element having 2+ valence electrons can transfer its more than one electron that is 2 electron completely.
Explanation:
- Group IIA have 2+ valency and two electrons in its valance shell.
- Its Electropositivity is high and have the tendency to donate it two electrons.
- Element of IIA form ionic with most electronegative element.
Examples:
Cu²⁺, Mg²⁺, Sr²⁺ are examples having 2+ valance electron
one of the following is examples of element that have 2+ valence electrons
MgCl₂
Atomic number of Magnesium (Mg) is 12
Electronic Configuration of Mg:
1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s²
or
K =2
L = 8
M = 2
So, it have to give its 2 electrons to form a stable compound.
Similarly
Chlorine atomic number is 17
Electronic Configuration of Chlorine:
1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁵
or
K =2
L = 8
M = 7
So, it have to gain one electrons to form a stable compound and complete its octet.
So,
Two chlorine atom as a molecule gain 2 electrons from Mg²⁺ atom
So one Mg²⁺ and 2 Cl⁻ atoms form an ionic bond
where in this ionic bond Mg²⁺ transfer its 2 valence electron completely and chlorine molecule accept 2 electrons.
Cl-----Mg------Cl
So the Answer is
element having 2+ valence electrons can transfer its more than one electron that is 2 electron completely.
