When lithium reacts with bromine to form the compound LiBr, each lithium atom:
(1) gains one electron and becomes a negatively
charged ion
(2) gains three electrons and becomes a negatively
charged ion
(3) loses one electron and becomes a positively
charged ion
(4) loses three electrons and becomes a positively
charged ion

Verified Answer :

(3) loses one electron and becomes positively charged
