Question

The element which has least tendency to lose electron is
(a) H
(b) Li
(c) He
(d) Ne

Answer 1

Answer:

C) helium (He)

Explanation:

Helium is the answer. Because it is an inert gas and it's doublet is complete so it does not require to lose or gain electron to gain stability. It is already stable

hope that helps !

Answer 2

Answer:

Helium

Explanation:

According to periodic table, Both Neon and Helium are inert gases hence don't lose/gain electrons but the element with least tendency is helium due to its state. The higher you move up the periodic table the easier to lose the electrons as the inter-electronic repulsions become low and attraction to nucleus becomes low, So Helium has 2 protons while Neon has 10 protons hence Neon is bigger than Helium(More tendency to lose electrons). Hence Helium is the most stable element
