there are many but most commonly are the heavy metals like copper or silver
The ion is awesom
an ion is when an element loses or gains one or more electrons. an isotope is when a element loses or gains one or more neutrons. when one or more proton(s) is/are gained or lost, it becomes a different element.
monatomic Ion- contains one atom polyatomic ion- contains more than one atom
which element can only formed one ion
An ion is a charged particle that forms when one or more electrons are transferred from one element to another. When an atom loses electrons, it becomes a positively charged ion (cation), and when it gains electrons, it becomes a negatively charged ion (anion).
Sodium forms 1 type of ion; namely, Na+.
An ion containing more than one element is called a polyatomic ion. These ions are composed of two or more atoms covalently bonded together and carry an overall charge. Examples include sulfate (SO4^2-) and carbonate (CO3^2-).
If an ion of an element is smaller than an atom of the same element, it suggests that the ion has lost electrons compared to the neutral atom. When electrons are lost, the outer electron shell contracts, making the ion smaller. This typically occurs when an element forms a positive ion by losing one or more electrons.
In a binary compound, the element that is more positive or basic is typically listed first in the chemical formula. This element is usually a metal or a positively charged ion, while the element listed second is often a nonmetal or a negatively charged ion. The more positive element is usually the one that forms cations in chemical reactions.
A positive ion ( the one that gives the electron) and a negative ion ( the one that accepts).
Anion.
no. Polyatomic means more than one atom, K+ is just the potassium element
