What charge do group 2 metal ion carry?
What charge would you find on a Group 2 ion?
Does an ion have a charge?
An ion does have a charge. That is what makes it an ion.
What is a rule for making a negative ion which has a negative charge?
A negative ion is formed by the addition of negatively charged electrons. The protons do not change.
Is calcium positive or negative charge?
Remember the talk about the "outer electrons" you learned about? Sodium (Na) has 1 electron in the outer most electron orbital. Calcium (Ca) has, you guessed it, 2 electrons in its' outer most electron orbital. Can you explain the rest to yourself? Remember they had a neutral charge before becoming ionic.
What is the charge of Mg?
Mg or the element magnesium has only one possible charge of +2. Just a hint but all elements in group 2 have a charge of +2 ie. Be, Ca, Sr...
What is the charge of Ca when it exists as a cation?
2+ will be the charge in Ca2+ ion
What charge does fluorine acquire when making an ion?
fluorine ion has a charge of -1, it has an extra elctron
What is the electrical charge of the chlorine ion?
A "cation" carries positive (+) charge. An "anion" caries a negative (-) charge. The charge carried in may be single or multiple.
Calcium chloride and sodium hydroxide is equals?
It would be unethical to use this service to answer exam or graded questions. CaCl2 + 2NaOH --> 2NaCl + Ca(OH)2 Calcium Chloride + Sodium Hydroxide --> Sodium Chloride + Calcium Hydroxide Why: Ca ion has 2+ charge Cl ion has 1- charge Na ion has 1+ charge OH polyatomic ion has 1- charge
For calcium ca write the numbers of electrons it must gain or lose to have 8 vlance electrons then calculate the charge of the ion that would form?
Ca must lose 2 electrons to have a complete 3n shell, which has 8 valence electrons. The ion would have a charge of 2+: Ca^2+.
What charge does sodium acquire when making an ion?
It gains a positive charge, generally being 1+
Is this formula correct Ca(OH)2?
Yes, it is correct. Calcium has a +2 charge, and the hydroxide polyatomic ion has a -1 charge.
What charge do group 2 metal ion carry?
What charge would you find on a Group 2 ion?
Is CaCl2 polyatomic ion?
No, it is a salt made of 1 Ca2+ ion and 2 Cl- ions with no total net charge. Hope this helps
Does an alkaline earth metal element form an ion with a charge of -1?
Alkaline earth metals form cations withe the electrical charge +2.As an exceptional curiosity exist the ion Ca-.
Does an ion have a charge?
An ion does have a charge. That is what makes it an ion.
What is a rule for making a negative ion which has a negative charge?
A negative ion is formed by the addition of negatively charged electrons. The protons do not change.
