The cation of lanthanum is La(3+).
+3
The most common ion formed by sulfur is the sulfide ion (S2-).
The ion formed by chlorine is the "chloride" ion
LaBr3 is Lanthanum tribromide, and it is an ionic compound.
Hydroxonium H3O+ ion is formed.
+1 Na+ ion is formed
P 3- is the ion with the noble gas configuration.
Lanthanum is primarily extracted from minerals such as monazite and bastnasite through a series of chemical processes. Initially, these ores are crushed and treated with sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid to dissolve the rare earth elements. The resulting solution undergoes solvent extraction or ion exchange to separate lanthanum from other elements. Finally, lanthanum is purified through processes like precipitation or further solvent extraction, yielding high-purity lanthanum oxides or metal.
Fluoride Ion
The ion formed by a calcium atom is called a calcium ion, which has a 2+ charge.
A Cation is a positive ion formed after removal of electron(s). For example, Fe^+2
A hydrogen ion (H+)
