Li+ is an ion that has lost 1 electron in order to have a full valence shell, making Li+ a cation. What charge does the element Be (beryllium) hold? Predict what elements will bond with Be in order for it to reach stability.

See the answer below

Explanation:

Beryllium forms an ion with 2 electrons in its outermost shell. Hence the charge on the element is 2+, that is,  Be2+. In order for Be to form a stable bond with another element, such an element must have a deficit of electrons  in its outermost shell. Beryllium will have to donate its 2 electrons to this element for its self-stability.

beta decay is the answer
