Which element would most likely have a positive electron affinity between Na Al Rb and Ar?
This element is rubidium.
Is an element with a large negative electron affinity most likely to form a positive ion a negative ion or a neutral atom?
negative ion
What list of pairs of ion lye NaOH are correct charge?
Na: positive; OH: negative
How do oxidation numbers determine if an element is a metal or a nonmetal?
Generally, metals attain positive oxidation numbers only. Non metals can have either positive or negative oxidation states. If an oxidation number is a negative value, it can be deduced that it's a non metal element.
If an element is missing one electron... is it a positive ion negative ion different element or different isotope?
If an element is missing one electron, which is defined as having a negative charge, then the element is a positively charged ion. If an element gains an extra electron, it will have a negative charge and be a negative ion. An element with an equal number of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons is considered to be a neutral element (in other words, no charge). By the way, no charge for this answer!
Is Na plus negative or positive ion?
Sodium, Na, is a group 1 element and generally holds a +1 charge.
Is Na positive of negative?
positive
What list pairs each element in table salt NaCL with the correct charge of its ion?
Na: positive; CL: negative
What is the formula for Na positive cl negative?
the formula for Na positive and Cl negative is NaCl.Commonly called as table SALT
What is positive ion and negative ion in NACl?
Na is positive ion,Cl is negative ion
Are electrons positive or negative in aluminium?
Electrons are always negative, regardless of the element they are in.
Is sodium a chemical equation?
No, because chemical equations require more than one element. For example: Na- + Cl -----> Na- Cl (Na is negative & Cl is positive) Also chemical equations have to have an arrow instead of an equal sign, as far as I know.
Will atoms of a non metallic element form positive or negative ions?
Positive ions
Which element can form both positive and negative ions?
Hydrogen
An ion is an element that has a what charge?
An ion is an atom of any element that either has a positive or negative charge.
Are NaCl ionic?
Yes it is. Na is positive ion and Cl is negative ion.
Which element would most likely have a positive electron affinity between Na Al Rb and Ar?
This element is rubidium.
