Is an ion is a charged particle?
yes. negatively charged ion is called cation and where as a positively charged ion is anion.
Between what do ionic bonds form?
it's a simultanious attraction between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion it's a simultanious attraction between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion
What is a positively or negativity charged atoms?
An ion is both positively and negatively charged.
What is a charged atom?
A charged atom is an ion. A positively charged version is a cation and a negatively charged one, an anion.
What a ion?
An ION is an atom that has lost or gained electrons. Thereby becoming a charged species. Once an atom becomes a charged species it is NO longer an atom but an ION . e.g. Sodium atom, symbol ' Na '. has 11 protons, 12 neutrons, and 11 electrons. When it loses (ionises) an electron it becomes a sodium ion. So sodium now has 11 protons, 12 neutrons, and 10 electrons . 11 protons (11+) and 10 electrons (10-). Doing a little sum 11+ 10- = 1(+) Hence the charge on the sodium ion is'+1' . Symbolically, shown as ' Na^(+) ' . and is named a sodium CATION. Similarly Chlorine atom, symbol ' Cl '. has 17 protons, 18 neutrons, and 17 electrons. When it has electron affinity it gains an electron it becomes a chloride ion. So chlorine now has 17 protons, 18 neutrons, and 18 electrons . 17 protons (17+) and 18 electrons (18-). Doing a little sum 17+ 18- = 1(-) Hence the charge on the chloride ion is'-1' . Symbolically, shown as ' Cl^(-) ' . and is named a chloride ANION.
What is cat ion?
A cation is a positively charged ion.
How does an atom become a positively charged ion?
An atom becomes a positively charged ion when it loses one or more electrons.
What form is nitrite found in?
Nitrite is typically found in its charged form as NO2-.
A positively charged what has more protons than electrons?
That would be a positively charged ion. (cation)
Is Cl a positively charged ion?
No, Cl is not a positively charged ion. Cl is the chemical symbol for chlorine, which typically forms a negatively charged ion called chloride (Cl-).
Is an ion positively charged?
Some are, others are negatively charged.
When an atom loses an electron it loses a?
Removal of an electron from an atom leaves a positively charged ion.
