It has 3 more protons than electrons. Protons are 1+ and electrons are 1-. So the charge on the hypothetical ion would be 3+
An ion that has more electrons than protons has a negative charge.
The number of electrons are required to predict the charge of the ion.
Ion 2+=====
An atom with an electric charge is called an ion. An ion is the result of an imbalance in the number of protons and electrons. If there is more protons than electrons then your atom will have a positive charge. If more electons then it will have a negative charge.
An electron has a negative charge. Also an ion in which there are more electrons than protons has a negative charge. Such an ion is called as anion.
The charge is +2 but this ion doesn't exist.
The electrical charge is -2.
55 protons and 53 electrons would have a net charge of 2+
The charge of any ion is equal to the number of protons minus the number of electrons. In this case 75-79 = -4.
An ion that has more electrons than protons has a negative charge.
A neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons. Protons are positively charged, and electrons are negatively charged. Therefore if you have an ion with a -1 charge, it has one extra electron. So your ion has 85 protons.
The number of electrons are required to predict the charge of the ion.
Remember.. I f there are more electrons than protons in an ion the charge will be negative. Here there is a -4 charge because the electrons are higher than the protons, if it were the opposite the charge would be +4.
It has a positive (+) charge.
It has a positive (+) charge.
The charge on a carbonate ion is -2; therefore, the ion has two more electrons than protons.
If there are more electrons than protons, then the ion charge is negative. If there are more protons than elections, then the ion charge is positive.
