Select all that apply. a nonmetal: is more likely to attract an electron than a metal is more likely to lose an electron than a metal requires more energy to lose an electron than a metal requires less energy to lose an electron than a metal

The correct answer is
requires more energy to lose an electron than a metal 

In fact, the main characteristics of the metals is that they have many electrons free to move through the lattice of the material, so it is easy for a metal to gain/lose electrons. On the contrary, non-metals don't have free electrons, so more energy is required in order to rip an electron from the atoms of the material.

The earths atmosphere is made up of nitrogen and oxygensolids turning into gases is called sublimation.
