What are particles that make up an ionic bond called?
Positive ions are called cations and negative ions are called anions.
What you called Na2BeO2?
Na2BeO2 is the chemical formula for "sodium beryllate", a salt with sodium cations and polyatomic beryllate anions.
Why AgBr shows both frenkel and schotky defect?
When the both the cations and anions are absent from the crystal lattice it is called Schottky defect. This defect is shown when the anions and cations have comparable size. The Frenkel defect is shown by ionic molecules when their is a large difference in the size of anions and cations. The smaller anions are very much mobile and they occupy interstitial site. AgBr has cations and anions with comparable size and hence it shows Schottky defect but the Ag+ ion is very much mobile and it easily occupies interstitial place getting dislocated from its original place, that's why the ionic crystal AgBr shows both Schottky and Frenkel defects.
What is the name given to ions that are positively charged?
it is written as the chemical initial with a + next to it for example, hydrogen would be H+ ion.
The process of atoms gaining or losing electrons to become anions or cations?
The process of removing electrons is generally called ionization.
When dissolved in water electrolytes dissociate?
yes. They form anions & cations. And the process is called as electrolysis.
When salt's dissolve they dissociate into components that are technically no longer salt's but are called?
Salts are dissociated in ions (cations and anions): Example: NaCl------------------------Na+ + Cl-
Is a negative ion called a cation?
no the negative ions are not called cations ,they are called anions
What is a positive charge on a ion called?
positive ions are called cations, while negatively charged ions are called anions
Positively or negatively charged atoms?
are called ions - cations and anions.
What are positively or negatively charged atoms?
They are called ions: postive (cations) and negative (anions).
What is the term for an atom with a change?
An ion. There are positive ions, called cations, and negative ions, called anions.
What are particles that make up an ionic bond called?
Positive ions are called cations and negative ions are called anions.
What are positive and negative ions called?
Positive ions are called cations. Negative ions are called anions.
Why do you think salt is called sodium chloride?
Because it contains Sodium cations and Chloride anions
What is the Definition and formation of cations and anions in Telugu?
Cations and anions are formed through the process of ionization, which involves the gain or loss of electrons by atoms. In Telugu, cations are known as "క్యాటియన్లు" (Kyaṭiyannlu), which are positively charged ions formed by losing electrons. Anions, on the other hand, are called "ఆనియన్లు" (Āniyannlu) and are negatively charged ions formed by gaining electrons.
What you called Na2BeO2?
Na2BeO2 is the chemical formula for "sodium beryllate", a salt with sodium cations and polyatomic beryllate anions.
