1 Electronic Configuration of Ions Nonmetallic elements form anions (-) Hydrogen atoms gain one electron to form H- with a stable 1s2 electron configuration. The other nonmetallic elements gain one, two, or three electrons to achieve a stable ns2np6 configuration. The group 17 nonmetals form -1 ions, the group 16 nonmetals form -2 ions, and the group 15 nonmetals form -3 ions. Metallic elements form cations. (You will only be able to predict some of the charges on these cations.) Many elements lose one, two, or three electrons and achieve one or two of the stable electron configurations: 1s2, ns2np6, nd10, or nd10(n+1)s2. http://www.mpcfaculty.net/mark_bishop/monatomic_ion_configurations.htm

2 Ions tend to form to gain the 1s2, ns2, np6, nd10, or nd10(n+1)s2 electron configuration for their highest energy electrons.
