Ions form when what is transferred between atoms?
Electrons
Why do atoms form ions and or bond why are they not content as neutral atoms?
The cause is the interaction between valence electrons.
What type of ions will nonmetals form?
Metals form cations and non-metals form anions.
How do positive and negative ions forms?
Atoms gain electrons to form negatively charged anions. Atoms lose electrons to form positively charged cations.
Charged atoms are called?
Charged atoms are called ions.
Why atoms of group 0 elements do not form ions?
why atoms of group 0 elements do not form ions
Why do atoms not always form ions in order to bonds?

Negative ions form when atoms-blank-valence electrons?
Negative ions form when atoms GAIN valence electrons.
What form of atoms or molecules form ionic bonds?
Ions, charged atoms
Which atoms form ions most easily?
unstable atoms
Why do some atoms form positive ions and some form negative ions?
Because they want to.
Can atoms lose or gain atoms to form elements?
No. Atoms of an element lose or gain electrons to form ions.
What do atoms become to form compounds?
ions
Why do negative ions form?
Negative ions are formed when atoms accept electrons.
Is sodium found in total cereal in the form of atoms or ions?
+1 ions.
Ions form when what is transferred between atoms?
Electrons
Does Be only have 4 electrons shared in BeCl2?
No. Beryllium has only two valence electrons and forms ionic bonds with chlorine, not covalent bonds. Beryllium atoms form 2+ ions, and chlorine atoms form 1- ions in order to form the ionic compound beryllium chloride, BeCl2.
