Elements that will loose electron as so that ion can be formed are; Fe and Pb.

Fe ( iron ) and Pb ( Lead) are both metals and metals will always loose electron so that they can turn to postively charged ion, and this ion is regarded as Cation.

Phosphorus (P) is a non- metal, it will only gain electron and turn to a negatively charged ions, this ion is regarded as Anion.

Therefore, Metals usually lose electron while non- metals accept the electron.
