Answer : 3. "lose electrons"
Explanation :

Answer: C) lose electrons Explanation: Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.   Hence, when Ionic bonds are formed metallic atoms tend to lose electrons and become positive ions
