Electrons can move from one atom to another during the formation of an ionic bond. In ionic bonding, one or more electrons are transferred from one atom to another. The atom that loses electrons becomes a positively charged ion, and the atom that gains electrons becomes a negatively charged ion.
In the half reaction where an oxygen molecule becomes into two oxide ions, it obtains 4 electrons from the oxidising substance.
The oxygen and hydrogen in water are bonded by a covalent bond. This means that the two lone lone electrons of hydrogen are shared with oxygen. Oxygen has a tendency to "hoard" electrons. So when it bonds with the hydrogen the two shared electrons are closer to the oxygen than to the hydrogen. As a result one side of water(the one with the oxygen) becomes slightly negative due to the fact that the oxygen has the two electrons closer to it. The side of the hydrogen becomes slightly positive as a result. When two or more molecules of water are placed together the slightly negatively charged oxygen from one molecule attracts the slightly positively charged hydrogen from another molecule forming a weak hydrogen bond. this hydrogen bond is formed as a result of the polarity of water.
their kinetic energy is transferred to the electrons of the neighboring atoms and kinetic energy is conserved as most molecular collisions are elastic.
Ions are made for clothes can not be wrinkly An ion is formed when an atom [or molecule] gains or loses one or more electrons. If an atom or molecule gains an electron it acquires negative charge. If the atom or molecule loses an electron it becomes positively charged.
When the friction occurs electrons transfer from one body to another . The body which gains the electrons becomes heavier in mass than the other . The mass transferred is given by , Total mass transferred = no. of electrons transferred * mass of each electron
An ionic bond forms when one atom transfers electrons to another atom. When this occurs, the atom that loses the electrons becomes a positively charged ion and the atom that gains the electrons becomes a negatively charged ion. The oppositely charged ions form an electrostatic attraction to one another, which is the ionic bond.
Ionization, it becomes a cation
NADP
electrons are transferred to the atom from other atoms through direct contact

No, Oxygen is an atom, and as such is composed of protons, neutrons and electrons. There are no molecules in oxygen, but a single oxygen atom becomes a molecule when it is combined with another oxygen atom to form O2.

Actually it is about the orbitals of valence shells of sulphur. Sulphur has atomic no. 16 and electronic configuration 1s2,2s2,2p6,3s2,3p4. Its outer most shell has s.p.d and f orbitals from which s and p have electrons and d and f are vacant. When 2 electrons from p are transferred to d, the valency becomes +2. When two more electrons from p are transfered to d, the valency becomes +4. When two left electrons from s are transferred to d, the valency becomes +6.
objects can be negatively charged when it is rubbed with another object; a woolen cloth for example. this is because the electrons from the woolen cloth will be transferred to the object which is being rubbed! only electrons can be transferred to the object and make the object becomes negatively charged.
In an ionic bond, one or more electrons are transferred from one atom to another. The atom that loses one or more electrons becomes a positively charged ion, and the atom that gains one or more electrons becomes a negatively charged ion. The ionic bond is an electrostatic attraction between the oppositely charged ions.
