Explanation:

Metal atoms tend to have low ionization energies relative to nonmetal atoms. ... Metal atoms lose electrons to nonmetal atoms because metals typically have relatively low ionization energies. Metals at the bottom of a group lose electrons more easily than those at the top.

Answer:

Metals tend to lose electrons and non-metals tend to gain electrons, so there is electron transfer from the metal to the non-metal in reactions involving these two groups. Metal atoms, since metals usually have comparatively low ionisation energies, sacrifice electrons to non-metal atoms.

Metals at the bottom of a group lose electrons more easily than those at the top. That is, ionization energies tend to decrease in going from the top to the bottom of a group.
