Step1: Analyze first atom diagram
The nucleus shows 8 protons. Count electrons: inner shell=2, outer shell=8 → total 10 electrons.
Step2: Calculate net charge
Net charge = (number of protons) - (number of electrons) = $8 - 10 = -2$
Step3: Classify ion and write notation
Charge is negative, so it's an anion. The element with 8 protons is oxygen (O). Ion notation: $\text{O}^{2-}$
Step4: Analyze second atom diagram
Nucleus shows 3 protons. Count electrons: 2 electrons.
Step5: Calculate net charge
Net charge = $3 - 2 = +1$
Step6: Classify ion and write notation
Charge is positive, so it's a cation. The element with 3 protons is lithium (Li). Ion notation: $\text{Li}^{+}$
Step7: Correct earlier fill-in errors
- Atom losing electrons: positive (not negative)
- Atom gaining electrons: negative (not positive)
- Atom with 12 electrons, 10 protons: net charge = $10 - 12 = -2$, it's an anion; element is neon is wrong, element is sodium? No, protons=10 is neon? No, protons define element: 10 protons = neon, but net charge -2, so anion $\text{Ne}^{2-}$? Wait no, 10 protons is neon, yes. Charge is -2, so anion.

Matching Section (corrected):
- Electric charge → C. Property of matter responsible for electrical events; it has two forms, positive and negative.
- Static electricity → E. A buildup of charge on an object.
- Electrical force → B. The pushes and pulls that electric charges exert on each other.
- Coulomb → A. A unit in measuring the amount of charge.
- Electrically neutral → D. An object that has equal amounts of positive and negative charges.
Fill-in Blanks (corrected):
- An atom that loses electrons becomes positive
- An atom that gains electrons becomes negative
Atom with 12 electrons, 10 protons:
- Charge: $-2$ (negative)
- Element: Neon (Ne, since protons=10)
- Ion type: Anion
