Answer:
metal atoms lose electrons to form positively charged ions. non-metal atoms gain electrons to form negatively charged ions.
Explanation:
In a reaction between metals and nonmetals, metals generally lose electrons to complete their octet and non-metals gain electrons to complete their octet. Metal atoms lose electrons from their outer shell when they form ions: the ions are positive, because they have more protons than electrons
