The reason for this is because nonmetals, have close to fulfilling an octet and need to gain few more electrons to do this, not to lose more. Nonmetals, because of the fact they need only few more electrons to satisfy their octet they would receive or share electrons to do this.

The property that nonmetals have are that they are very electronegative, they possess a strong affinity to pull electron density closer, because they possess fewer electron shells and possess even protons this allows for this.

We have that Nonmetals rarely lose electrons in chemical reactions because the engage in bonds that rarely consume there valence electron.

From the question we are told

Nonmetals rarely lose electrons in chemical reactions because

Generally

Non-metals engage in two types of chemical bonding reactions two of which are

Ionic Bonding

This is a bonding in which a metal donates it valence electron to the valence electron of the Non-metal to form a bond

Covalent Bonding

Here, Non-metal share there valence electrons in forming a covalent bond again in creating this bond the reserve electron

Therefore

Nonmetals rarely lose electrons in chemical reactions because the engage in bonds that rarely consume there valence electron.
