An atom gains an electron from another atom. Hence, option B is the correct answer.
<h3>What is an atom?</h3>
An atom is a particle of matter that uniquely defines a chemical element. An atom consists of a central nucleus that is usually surrounded by one or more electrons.
When an atom shares electrons with another atom then it results in the formation of a covalent bond.
Whereas when an atom transfer electrons from one atom to another then it results in the formation of an ionic bond.
When the nucleus of an atom splits then it represents a nuclear fission reaction and energy is released during this process.
Hence, option B is the correct answer.

Answer:
The electrons are lost from the valence shell (outermost electron shell) of the atom.
Explanation:
This is able to be inferred not only because valence electrons being lost first is a trend but also because the atom in question has actually 3 valence electrons (13-2-8 = 3).
Answer:
Explanation:
The surface soil, or topsoil layer (O and A horizon in Figure 1–2), usually contains less clay, but more organic matter and air, than the lower soil layers. Topsoil is usually more fertile than the other layers and has the greatest concentration of plant roots.
Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) or commonly known as aspirin is used as pain reliever, treatment for fever and inflammation. The type of bond that aspirin have is covalent bond. Covalent bond is when atoms share their electrons. Aspirin is made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen with a formula of C9H8O4.
