Do nonmeatls form anions or cations?
Generally anions. (e.g. Cl-, F-, O2-, N3-)
When cations and anions meet they?
form a 3-D structure
What types of ions do different elements form?
Ions are cations (positive) or anions (negative).
What do group 7A elements become when they react with group 1A?
Atoms of column 7A become anions when they react with atoms of group 1A elements, which become cations. Both the cations and the anions are monovalent. The cations and anions together form an ionically bonded compound.
When dissolved in water electrolytes dissociate?
yes. They form anions & cations. And the process is called as electrolysis.

What type of ions form an ionic compound?
cations and anions
When cations and anions meet they?
form a 3-D structure
Do the transition metals form cations or anions?
''Cations'' breh. Transition metals often form ions wihout complete octets that's why all the stable ions are all cations You can also tell that they form cations because some of the trans metals form colored compounds and give off light. Light is only given off by cations, not anions.
Do metallic elements tend to form cations rather than anions?
no
Metals usually form from what types of ions?
Metals usually form cations, or positively charged ions.
Is argon a cation or anion?
Argon is a neutral atom. It does not normally form cations or anions.
What types of ions do different elements form?
Ions are cations (positive) or anions (negative).
What 2 element types form an ionic compound?
A metal (as positively charged cations) and a non-metal (as negatively charged anions) need to be held together to form an ionic compound.
What do group 7A elements become when they react with group 1A?
Atoms of column 7A become anions when they react with atoms of group 1A elements, which become cations. Both the cations and the anions are monovalent. The cations and anions together form an ionically bonded compound.
Does lithium form monatomic anions?
No; lithium forms monatomic cations with formula Li+1.
Do metaliods have anions or cations?
they can form either cation or anion depending on the counterpart (or the atom with which it is combining).
