Ions are electrically charged particles formed when atoms lose or gain electrons. They have the same electronic structures as noble gases.
Metal atoms form positive ions, while nonmetal atoms form negative ions. The strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions are called ionic bonds.
Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points.
How ions form Ions are electrically charged particles formed when atoms lose or gain electrons. This loss or gain leaves a complete highest energy level, so the electronic structure of an ion is the same as that of a noble gas - such as a helium, neon or argon.
Metal atoms and non-metal atoms go in opposite directions when they ionise:
Positively charged sodium and aluminium ions
Negatively charged oxide and chloride ions
How many charges?There is a quick way to work out what the charge on an ion should be:Note 1: carbon and silicon in Group 4 usually form covalent bonds by sharing electrons.
Note 2: the elements in Group 0 do not react with other elements to form ions.

Sodium is an alkali metal, and it is from Group 1 on the periodic table. That group is the vertical column down the far left side of the periodic table. The elements in that group are hydrogen (H), lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb), cesium (Cs), and francium (Fr). Wikipedia has a nice post on this group of elements, those in Group 1 of the periodic table, and a link is provided to the post. You'll find that link below.
Radon is an inert or noble gas, and that's as far from being a metal as an element can get. You'll find radon at the bottom of the Group 18 elements (naturally) on the periodic table. Use the link below for more information.

Paladium is a rare metal. Please see the link.
Mr.Farleys class :)
These are the elements in group 2 of the periodic table. Please see the link.
Caesium is an alkali metal from Group 1 of the periodic table. A link can be found below.
The link word between "book" and "charge" is "library" - books are often found in libraries where one can borrow them for free, while charges can be incurred for overdue books or lost/damaged items.
no
The number of outer electrons is the same as the group number.
Please check the associated link on the first group metals. It shows the reactivity of pure sodium and other group 1 elements
Well, seeing as Francium is in the alkali metals group, one would be inclined to assert that it is just about as metallic as you can get. Therefore, yes. It's most definitely a metal.Francium is a metal.
There are no solid links to Satanism and heavy metal, heavy metal artists use Satanism insignias to get publicly.
that would be a acid-metal oxide reaction see related link for more info
Archeopteryx belongs to the group Aves, which are a subgroup of Theropoda. They were closely related to the link between dinosaurs and birds.
