What is the charge on an alkali metal ion?
the charge on all alkali metal ions is 1 +
What is the charge of all alkali metal ions?
Alkali metals are found in group 1 of the periodic table. They will form ions with a 1+ charge. If you meant alkaline earth, they are found in group 2, and will form ions with a 2+ charge.
When one metal ion shares electrons with anthor metal ion it is called?
Metal ions do not share electrons with one another. Metal ions have a positive charge.
What are metal cations?
Cations are ions with a positive charge. Metal cations are formed when metal loses electrons.
How determine the charge of Al(NO3)3?
The compound is neutral; the ions are Al(3+) and (NO3)-.
Do metal ions have a positive charge?
On their own metals have no charge. Metal ions have a positive charge.
What is the charge on alkaline-earth metal ions?
All alkaline earth metal ions have a charge of +2
What is charge on alkaline earth metal ions?
-1 charge
What is the charge on alkaline earth metal ions?
-1 charge
What is the charge on an alkali metal ion?
the charge on all alkali metal ions is 1 +
What is the charge of all alkali metal ions?
Alkali metals are found in group 1 of the periodic table. They will form ions with a 1+ charge. If you meant alkaline earth, they are found in group 2, and will form ions with a 2+ charge.
When one metal ion shares electrons with anthor metal ion it is called?
Metal ions do not share electrons with one another. Metal ions have a positive charge.
If a metal loses electrons to a non metal during a chemical reaction the metal and non metal become ions What is the charge on the different ions and why are the ions held together?
The charge on each of the ions formed depends on the specific elements involved. The ions are then held together by the electrostatic attraction between the opposite charges (positive and negative) (called an ionic bond).
What are metal cations?
Cations are ions with a positive charge. Metal cations are formed when metal loses electrons.
What are the top ways of identifying metal ions?
They have a positive charge. All metals form positive ions.
Do all alkaline metals form ions with a positive charge?
Yes, all metal ions are positive.
How can you determine the charge of metal cations nonmetal anions and transition metal cations?
How to determine these ions:metal cations: find the positive charge, and make sure it is qual to the group numbernonmetal anions: subtract 8 from the group numbertransition metals cations: the number of electrons lost
