What is the difference in mass of Na ion and Na atom?
The difference in mass between a sodium atom and a sodium ion (supposing Na+) is 9.10938188 × 10-31kg (the mass of an electron). This is due to the sodium atom losing an electron to form an ion. In order to attain the mass of a single sodium atom you need to divide the molar massn (mass number) of sodium by avogadro's number. You can then find the mass of the ion by subtracting the mass of an electron from the mass of a sodium atom.
What do you call an element that has the same type of atom but different atomic mass?
Mabye an ion. I studied that but I think it is an ion. I am not sure. Sorry. Mabye an ion. I studied that but I think it is an ion. I am not sure. Sorry.
What is the difference of a atom and a ion?
An atom is just a basic unit of mass. An ion is when two types of atoms bond.
An atom has 14 neutrons and an atomic mass of 26 What will be the charge of the atom when it forms an ion?
+ or - 4
How is an ion different from an atom of the same substance?
an ion has a full "shell"
What is the mass number of the ion?
The mass number of an ion remains the same as the element. This is because an ion gains or loses electrons which have minimal mass.
Is an atom of an element with a different number of neutrons called ion or isotope?
ion
What is the rule for determining the mass number of an atom or ion?
The mass number of an atom or ion is determined by adding together the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Protons and neutrons contribute roughly the same amount of mass to an atom, so the mass number gives a good approximation of the atomic mass.
Is a ion larger or smaller than its parent atom?
A negative ion would be considered larger than its parent atom. This is because electrons have mass, which makes the ions gain mass to outgrow their parent atoms.
What do you call an atom that has gained or lost a proton?
An atom of a different element.
What is the atomic mass of OH?
The hydroxide ion (OH⁻) consists of one oxygen atom and one hydrogen atom. The atomic mass of oxygen is approximately 16.00 amu, and the atomic mass of hydrogen is about 1.01 amu. Therefore, the atomic mass of the hydroxide ion is roughly 17.01 amu.
How does the negative ion different from an uncharged atom of the same element?
the ion has a greater number of electrons
