A charged particle results from losing or gaining electrons?
Yes. A particle that loses an electron becomes an ion with a positive charge. A particle that gains an electron becomes an ion with a negative charge.
What is atom that has gained an electron to form a charged particle?
This is a negative ion
What is a positive and negative ion?
when an atom loose electron it become negative ion and when it gains electron it become positive ion
Why formation of uni-negative ion is exothermiic process?
Because when the negative ion is form the atom evolves energy for gaining an other electron.The energy evolves in anionic process so the formation of negative ion is an exothermic process.
What ion is form when an atom gains electrons?
Typically, a negative ion is formed by gaining electrons. This is because electrons hvae a negative charge. An example of a case where a positive ion can be formed by gaining an electron is when an ion with a charge of +2 can gain 1 electron and become +1. Technically in this case, a positive ion was formed when an electron was gained but the trend was that the ion became more negative not positive.
Most halogens form compounds by a. gaining an electron to form a negative ion. b. losing an electron to form a positive ion. c. losing protons. d. joining with both calcium and carbon.?
A: Gaining an electron
What is needed to form a negative ion?
An electron is added in an atom to form a negative ion or anion. Because electron carry negative charge.
Why some atom lose electron and some gain electron?
Atom lose electron to form positive ion and some gain electron to form negative ion.
Is an element with a large negative electron affinity most likely to form a positive ion a negative ion or a neutral atom?
negative ion
How does an atom becom a negative ion?
It becomes whenever it gains one or more electron.
A bromine atom would form its most stable ion by?
gaining 1 electron
When potassium and fluorine bind which will form into a positive or negative ion?
Potassium loses 1 electron to form the K+ ion. Fluorine gains one electron to form the F- ion
A charged particle results from losing or gaining electrons?
Yes. A particle that loses an electron becomes an ion with a positive charge. A particle that gains an electron becomes an ion with a negative charge.
What is atom that has gained an electron to form a charged particle?
This is a negative ion
What is a positive and negative ion?
when an atom loose electron it become negative ion and when it gains electron it become positive ion
How do you identify and ion?
An ion is an element that, through losing or gaining an electron, has acquired a charge. So, an ion will have a negative (-) or positive (+) symbol next to it. An ion is an element that, through losing or gaining an electron, has acquired a charge. So, an ion will have a negative (-) or positive (+) symbol next to it.
Why are ions charged atoms and thus no longer neutral atoms?
That is exactly what a definition of an ion is. Ion's have charges. That's what they are. WHY? They lose or gain electrons. By GAINING an electron, you have a negative (-) charge. By LOSING an electron, you have a positive (+) charge.
