nitrogen family
because nitrogen family wants to complete its octet by taking three electrons from other compounds.
Negative, when the ion gains an electron. When an ion loses an electron it becomes positive.
The chloride becomes Cl-1 . When an ion is negative, it becomes an anion (or A Negative ION).
It becomes a negative ion.
A positive ion is an ion with no negative charges.
When it gains an electron. It then becomes a negative ion.
It becomes a negative ion.
it will become a negative ion due to the negative charge of electron
A negative charge is the opposite of an ion. An Ion with a negative charge becomes an Anion. Normally with a negative charge they are called Electrons. See electrons for more help
An atom becomes a positive ion by losing electrons, resulting in more protons than electrons. This creates a net positive charge. An atom becomes a negative ion by gaining electrons, leading to more electrons than protons. This creates a net negative charge.
Electrons are negatively charged. When an atom gains an electron it gains this negative charge, and so it becomes negative. When it loses it again it has lost that negative charge and becomes more positive.
The atom becomes a negative ion.
True. An atom that gains one or more electrons forms a negative ion.
