How does the nitrate ion differ from the nitrate ion?
The nitrite ion has one less oxygen atom.
Do the number of electrons for an ion differ from its neutral atom?
no it doesnt
How does a negative ion differ from an uncharge atom of the same element?
the ion has a greater number of electrons
Do the number of neutrons for an ion differ from its neutral atom?
no. it will be same. only the number of electrons will differ
Do the atomic number for an ion differ from its neutral atom?
no. atomic number will be same as the number of protons will not change for an ion and its neutral atom, but the number of electrons will vary.
How does the composition of an ion differ from the composition of a non ionic particle?
An ion has a net electrical charge; a nonionic particle that is at least as large as an atom does not.
How do the definitions of oxidation and reduction differ?
Oxidation is the loss of electrons or an increase in oxidation state by a molecule, atom or ion. Reduction is the gain of electrons or a decrease in oxidation state by a molecule, atom, or ion.
How does an s2- ion differ from an electrically neutral sulfur atom?
An S2- ion has gained two electrons, giving it a 2- charge, while a neutral sulfur atom has an equal number of protons and electrons. This means that the S2- ion has two more electrons than a neutral sulfur atom.
How does a charged ion differ from a neutral ion?
All ions are charged- either positive or negative - there is no such thing as a neutral ion- an ion is a charged atom e.g. Na+ (sodium atom lost 1 electron), Cl- (chlorine atom gained 1 electron) or a molecule (chemists call these polyatomic ions) - e.g. SO42-
How do sodium ion and sodium atom differ?
Sodium Ion has lost one electron, to become an ion, Na+.Sodium has one more electron than Sodium ion.Sodium Ion has 2 energy levels of electrons.Sodium Atom has 3 energy levels of electrons.Sodium Ion has 11 Protons, 11 Neutrons and 10 Electrons.Sodium Atom has the same number of protons (11) ,neutrons (11) and electrons (11).
What does a fluoride ion have in common with a neon atom and a sodium atom?
what does an atom have in common with an ion?
What is the meaning of negatively charged ion?
An ion exists as an atom or a molecule where the total number of protons in the nuclei do not equal the atom/molecule's electrons. An example is Ca2+. It has 2 less electrons than it has protons.
