a charged group of two or more nonmedal atoms is called a?
The resulting compound would be electrically neutral.
The resulting compound would be electrically neutral.
Atoms are electrically neutral. Charged species are known as ions.
When ions come together, they do so in a way that balances out the charges on the ions.
Because it composed of positive ions and negative ions so that the product is electrically neutral (no charge).
The positive ions and negative ions attract each other. This attractive force is an ionic bond. Each positive ion balances the charge of one negative ion so overall, the compound is electrically neutral. P.S. This is from my textbook. Good luck. :)
No. Ions of opposite charges come together to form electrically neutral compounds. A compound cannot carry an electric charge.
There is no charge. All compounds are electrically neutral. If you mean the charges of the component ions, copper carries a 2+ charge and the hydroxide ions carry a 1- charge.
Molecules are electrically neutral. Ions have electric charges.
ions or radicals
The resulting compound would be electrically neutral.
Ionic compounds are electrically neutral, neither positive nor negative, due to presence of both positive and negative ions which cancel out.
