If a fluorine atom were to attract an extra electron from lithium the lithium atom would become charged?
The chlorine atom would become a negatively charged chlorine anion because it has an extra electron, and the lithium atom would become a positively charged cation because it has lost one electron.
What charge does sodium and chlorine become after reacting together?
Sodium chloride has no charge.
What does chlorine need to become stable?
A chlorine atom needs one additional electron in order to become stable.
If chlorine atom were to attract an electron from sodium the chlorine atom would become a?
positively
If a chlorine atom were to attract an electron from sodium the chlorine atom would become charged.?
positively
If a chlorine atom attracted an extra electron from lithium the lithium atom would become?
Yes. Any atom that loses or gains electrons become charged. Positively charged If the chlorine atom attracts an electron from a lithium atom, they both become charged ions. The chlorine atom becomes a -1 charged chlorine ion and the lithium atom becomes a +1 charged lithium ion. Further the two ions combine to make the compound Lithium Chloride.
Will Li gain or lose when reacting to Cl?
Li loses one electrons. Cl gains the electron.
If a fluorine atom were to attract an extra electron from lithium the lithium atom would become charged?
The chlorine atom would become a negatively charged chlorine anion because it has an extra electron, and the lithium atom would become a positively charged cation because it has lost one electron.
How many electrons doe lithium gain or lose?
Lithium(Li) gains 1 electron to become stable.
What charge does sodium and chlorine become after reacting together?
Sodium chloride has no charge.
What does chlorine need to become stable?
A chlorine atom needs one additional electron in order to become stable.
If chlorine atom were to attract an electron from sodium the chlorine atom would become a?
positively
When chlorine become's an ion what will happen?
When chlorine gains an electron , it forms an anion. It is represented as Cl-
If a chlorine atom were to attract an electron from sodium the chlorine atom would become charged.?
positively
How can linthium bond with chorine?
An electron from the Lithium is donated to the Chlorine (so both atoms have a full outer shell) - this means they become Li+ and Cl- , which are charged particles so they attract each other.
How many electrons would lithium use to form an ion?
Lithium loses one electron to become the cation Li+.
How do lithium and fluorine become stable together?
lithium donates the electron in its outer orbital to fluorine which then has a completed outer shell
