What else can I help you with?
Is an anion an ion with more electrons than protons giving it a negative charge?
Yes, an anion is an ion with more electrons than protons giving it a negative charge.
What is an ion with more electrons than protons?
When an ion has more electrons than protons in it, the whole ion (charged particle) is negatively charged. The number of negative charges (electrons) exceeds the number of positive charges (protons).
Is an anion is an ion with more electrons than protons giving it a negative charge?
Yes, an anion is an ion that has more electrons than protons, which gives it a negative charge.
What is the atom with the most electrons than protons is called?
If you mean an atom with more electrons than protons it is called an ion. More specifically an anion (negatively charged)
What is polyatomic anion?
IT is a negatively charged ion consisting of more than one atom
When an atom has more electrons than protons it is?
An atom with more protons than electrons is a cation.
When an atom has more electrons that protons it is?
An anion is an ion with more electrons than protons.
What is an atom that has more electrons than normal referred to as?
An atom with extra (a higher number than that of its protons) electrons is an anion. An atom with a lower count than its protons is a cation. They are often reffered to as positive (cation) or negative (anion) Ions. An Ion is defined as a charged particle.
Would the Br ion be bigger than the Se ion?
No. The Se ion will be larger than the Br ion. The more negative the anion's charge, the larger the radius (more electrons = stronger repulsion between the electrons; so, more distance between them). Se would become "Se2-" as an anion, and Br would become "Br1-". Because Se's "2-" anion charge is more negative than Br's "1-" anion charge, and because Se would have more relative electrons to protons than Br, there is more repulsion between electrons, and distance, within the Se ion. So, the Se ion has a larger radius. Hope it helps.
What is an anion and how is it formed?
an anion is simply an atom of an element which has 1 or more excess electrons in addition to its own electrons.this is the reason an anion has negative charge equals to the number of excess electrons it has.
What is an atom called when the number of protons is not equal to the number of electrons?
An ion. If there are less electrons than protons, the atom gains a positive charge and is called a cation. If there are more electrons than protons, the atom gains a negative charge and is called an anion.
What is a negative charged ion called?
This ion is an anion.
