Does Anions have more protons than electrons?

anions have more electrons than protons


What is true about all anions?

Atoms are not anions. An atom is an electrically neutral particle with equal numbers of protons and electrons. An atom becomes an anion by gaining more electrons, so becoming negatively charged.


What is true of all atoms that are anions A more electrons than protons B more protons than electrons C fewer protons than neutral atom of same element D more neutrons than protons E net charge is 1-?

Answer A is correct: there are more electrons than protons. However, if a particle is an anion, it is not an atom. Atoms are electrically neutral.


How are monatomic anions formed from atoms in terms of protons and electrons?

Monatomic anions are formed when atoms gain one or more electrons. The number of protons in the nucleus remains the same, giving the atom a net negative charge due to having more electrons than protons.


What is a charged particle because it had more or fewer electrons then protons?

Cations are positively charged ions formed when atoms lose electrons. So they have less electrons than protons. Anions are negatively charged ions formed when atoms gain electrons. So they have more electrons than protons.


What are charged atoms due to a loss or gain of electrons?

all charged particles are ions. cations are positive meaning they have more protons than electrons. anions are negative meaning they have more electrons than protons


Does the number of electrons equal the number of protons in an atom?

In a balanced atom, yes. There are exceptions, however. Anions are atoms with more electrons than protons (negative charge). Cations are atoms with more protons than electrons (positive charge). Cations and Anions bond readily through ionic bonds. EXAMPLE: Na+ Cl- (Sodium Chloride)


What ions have more electrons than protons?

Anions have more electrons than protons. Anions are negatively charged ions, which means they have gained one or more electrons compared to the number of protons present in their nucleus. This electron gain gives them a net negative charge.


What do you get when the number of protons and electrons in your model is not equal?

Cations are formed if electrons are less. Anions are formed if electrons are more.


Do anions have more protons than neutrons?

No, anions have more electrons than protons. An anion is a negatively charged ion that gains an extra electron, resulting in a greater number of negative charges compared to positive charges (protons). Neutrons do not have charge and are not directly related to the charge of anions.


Do ions have more electrons than the atoms from which they were formed?

of course, ions are formed by loosing (cations) or gaining (anions) electrons. anions have more electrons than the atom from which it is formed.


What has more electrons than protons?

An ion with a negative charge has more electrons than protons. This means that the number of electrons exceeds the number of protons in the atom, giving it a net negative charge.
