Letter X could be any element. It has charge depending on name of element.
neutral
The atom is neutral; the anion has the charge -1.
When "x" valence electrons are lost the charge is +x When "x" valence electrons are gained the charge is -x for example, if chlorine gained one electron, the charge would be Cl 1- or, if magnesium lost two electrons, the charge would be Mg 2+
The overall charge on He is 0. It is a noble element.
-1
-1, but since there are two chlorines the charge is -2.
-1
cl
gas
3
An ion is an atom of any element that either has a positive or negative charge.
they provide a positive charge for the element
the charge is 3+
Two
Cl....
yes
