If an atom loses two electrons, what is its charge?
If a neutral atom loses 2 electrons, it must necessarily be a dication.
Try Group II, the alkaline earths, to find atoms with two valence electrons on the Periodic Table.
This formal charge could also be present in many transition metals.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
