Is cadmium positive or negative?
As a metal, cadmium forms a positive ion (a cation) when it ionizes, usually with a charge of +2. However, pure elemental cadmium has no charge because it has enough electrons to balance its protons, and cadmium salts are electrically neutral because the charge of the anion balances the charge of the anion.
What is the formula of the ion formed when cadmium achieves a pseudo noble gas electron configuration?
Cadmium forms ion with +2 charge. It is Cd2+
What is the charge cadmium cation in cadmium bromide?
2+
What is the charge of the sulfide ion?
Sulfide is divalent ion. it is S2-
What is the ion charge of molybdenum?
The charge of the molybdenum ion is +2.
Why does fluoride have 2 ions in the compound cadmium fluoride CdF2?
The cadmium ion has a 2+ charge and each fluoride ion has a 1- charge, so two fluoride ions are needed to balance the 2+ charge of cadmium. Two F- ions provide a total negative charge of 2- to balance the 2+ charge of cadmium.

Is -3 the charge in an oxide ion?
No. The oxide ion has a -2 charge.
What is the symbol and charge for the ion chromate?
The formula for a chromate ion is CrO4-2, and its charge is -2.
An atomic ion has 3 protons and 1 electron What is the charge of the ion?
The charge is 2+.
What is the chemical formula for cadmium II perchlorate?
The answer is Cd(ClO4)2 The charge of cadmium(II) is 2+, and the charge of ClO4 is 1-. So to even the charges we must have two of the ClO4.
