atoms of elements in group 2 lose two electrons to become a 2+ ion
atoms of elements in group 3 lose three electrons to become a 3 + ion
atoms of elements in group 4 share electrons to form covalent bonds
atoms of elements in group 5 gain 3 electrons to form a 3- ion
atoms of elements in group 6 gain 2 electrons to form a 2- ion
atoms of elements in group 7 gain 1 electron to form a 1- ion
atoms of elements in group 8 do not react as their outer shell is full
