Question

For each of the following elements listed below please identify the ionic state each element forms ionic bonds as. For example, for Lithium, we know that to achieve a noble gas electron configuration of Helium, Lithium will lose one electron to have an ionic state of +1. In other words, Lithium forms ionic bonds as "+1". When you answer, you do not need to add quotation marks. Please answer with either "+" or "-" symbols in front of a number.

a. Li:

b. F:

c. Mg:

d. Cl:

e. K:

f. S:

g. Ca:
