Question

when sulfur forms an ion, it will most likely
lose 2 electrons to become s²⁺.
gain 2 electrons to become s²⁺.
lose

Explanation:

Sulfur is a non - metal with 6 valence electrons. Non - metals tend to gain electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration. Gaining 2 electrons will give sulfur a stable octet and result in a negatively charged ion $S^{2 - }$.

Answer:

gain 2 electrons to become $S^{2 - }$
