When an ion gains electrons What is the charge?
Negative, when the ion gains an electron. When an ion loses an electron it becomes positive.
If Chlorine receives an electron from Sodium then Chlorine becomes a(n)?
The chloride becomes Cl-1 . When an ion is negative, it becomes an anion (or A Negative ION).
What happens when chlorine gains an extra electron on the outer shell?
It becomes a negative ion.
What is an example of a negative ion?
A positive ion is an ion with no negative charges.
A chlorine atom becomes a chloride ion when it is?
When it gains an electron. It then becomes a negative ion.
What happen when atom an electron?
It becomes a negative ion.
If an electron is added to a neutral atom the atom becomes what?
it will become a negative ion due to the negative charge of electron
What a negative charge?
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
How does an atom become a positive ion a nevative ion?
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.
Why when ions gain it becomes negative and when ion loses it becomes positive?
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.
What happen when you add an electron to an atom?
The atom becomes a negative ion.
When an atom gains an electron or more it directly becomes negative ion?
True. An atom that gains one or more electrons forms a negative ion.
