Predict what the formula would be for a compound formed between potassium and sulphur?
K2S. Potassium forms monovalent cations and sulphur forms divalent anions.
What does an element that forms an anion do?
When the element bonds with another element it accepts electrons (it does not give them away) and becomes negatively charged.
What kind of element forms anion after ionic bonding?
Non metals generally form anions. They gain electrons during ionic bonding.
What kind element forms anion after ionic bonding?
Non metals generally form anions. They gain electrons during ionic bonding.
Will the element potassium be more likely to form an anion or a cation?
Actually it forms only cations: K+
What is the crystalline solid formed by potassium bromide?
Potassium bromide forms an ionic solid
Does potassium form anions?
No. Like other metals potassium forms a monatomic cation.
Does potassium form monatomic anions?
No. Like other metals potassium forms a monatomic cation.
Is iodine a cation?
Iodine itself is an element, not an ion. It forms anions rather than cations.
Predict what the formula would be for a compound formed between potassium and sulphur?
K2S. Potassium forms monovalent cations and sulphur forms divalent anions.
What forms potassium?
Potassium is an element and formed in stars
Is oxygen anion or cation?
Oxygen is an element. It normally forms anions.
Is potassium neutral or ion?
Potassiuim metal is neutral. Potassium in a solution of water forms an ion. Potassium in a compound with almost any other element forms an ionic bond.
Is potassium same as silicon dioxide?
No, potassium is an element and silicon dioxide is a compound that forms sand and glass.
What does an element that forms an anion do?
When the element bonds with another element it accepts electrons (it does not give them away) and becomes negatively charged.
Which element forms an ion with the same charge as the ammonium ion?
potassium
What kind of element forms anion after ionic?
Non metals generally form anions. They gain electrons during ionic bonding.
