Source sentences:
text: Ionic bonding occurs between metals and non-metals because metals have few electrons in the outermost ring.
text: These metals have only one electron in their outer shell.
text: The metals in the outer most orbit have only a few electrons, therefore by losing such electrons the metal achieve the noble gas configuration and thus satisfy the octet rule.
text: Note on electron arrangements : Except for boron, most non–metals have at least four electrons in the out shell.
text: Metals have less number of electrons in their outermost s and p orbitals (except for few metals).
