Bromine has 7 electrons in its outer shell and needs to gain one electron to have a full outer shell and become an ion. It will gain this electron from an atom that has one electron in its outer shell such as Lithium or Sodium.
A bromine ion can have a charge of -1.
The ion bromide is Br-.
The ion name for bromine is bromide.
The bromine ion is referred to as bromide, and it is Br^-
The negative ion of bromine is called bromide (Br-).
An ion of bromine typically has 36 electrons since bromine has 35 electrons in its neutral state, but the charge of the ion will determine the exact number.
"Bromine" is the name of an atom or an element. The corresponding ion is named "bromide".
Yes, its negative ion is called Bromide = Br-
A bromine ion with only 26 electrons is not possible. A bromine atom has 35 electrons and it can't loose 9 electrons.
In the reaction, bromine gains an electron and forms a bromide ion (Br-). This results in a decrease in the oxidation state of the bromine atom from 0 to -1.
Bromine loses an electron and forms a bromide ion by gaining one electron in the reaction with sodium. Sodium donates its electron to bromine, making the bromine atom gain one electron and become a bromide ion during the reaction.
