Fill in the blanks (involves cation/anions and reaching octet)?

k think about this.. if its a +2 that mean it loses 2 electrons making it more positive, you're right in saying that it needs two electrons to complete an octet, so it would from an anion and it would be S2-.. which means it would gain 2 electrons to fill in that last orbital, and the atom would grow in negative charge.
