No, an anion is the atom plus extra electrons which give that atom a negative charge. The anion is thus, always bigger than the original atom.
Anion will have more electron than which atom it was form. So, after forming the the atom will have more electron cloud and size will be smaller compare to the original one.
The radius of an anion is bigger than the radius of a neutral atom.
A cation is smaller than the neutral atom because one electron is removed from the original atom to form it. An anion is larger than the neutral atom because one electron is added to the original atom to form it.
The Universe was never smaller than an atom.
Only the anion is greater than the atom because gained an electron.
The atomic radius of a cation is smaller than that of its original atom. See the related link for an image example of what this may look like.
Anion will have more electron than which atom it was form. So, after forming the the atom will have more electron cloud and size will be smaller compare to the original one.
An anion has more electrons than a neutral atom.
A. When an atom forms a cation, it becomes smaller than it does when it becomes an anion.
The radius of an anion is bigger than the radius of a neutral atom.
The anion has a negative electrical charge and is more chemically reactive than the atom.
A cation is smaller than the neutral atom because one electron is removed from the original atom to form it. An anion is larger than the neutral atom because one electron is added to the original atom to form it.
anion
A negatively charged atom is called an anion, which is an atom that has more electrons than protons.
A cation is smaller than the neutral atom because one electron is removed from the original atom to form it. An anion is larger than the neutral atom because one electron is added to the original atom to form it.
The Universe was never smaller than an atom.
Because it has donated an electron(s) into the valance shell of an anion, thus the overall radius of the element has decreased and sometimes significantly.
