What else can I help you with?
Why do some objects have a negative charge and others a positive charge?
atoms often gain or lose electrons,which causes them to have a temporary negative or positive charge.
Is uranium more likely to lose or gain electrons?
Uranium loose electrons becoming a cation.
Are radioactive isotopes produced when atoms lose electrons?
When atoms lose electrons cations are produced.
Atoms like sodium and lithium often lose electrons, which makes them?
The kind of atom that likes to be oxidized.
When atoms lose or gain electrons they from?
When atoms lose or gain electrons, they form ions. These are charged particles.
What kind of atoms tend to lose atoms?
Metals lose electrons.
Do atoms lose protons but seldom lose or gain electrons?
Atoms typically do not lose protons because that would change the identity of the element. Instead, atoms can lose or gain electrons to form ions with a different charge. Protons are not generally lost by atoms in chemical reactions.
What chemical bond occurs when atoms lose gain or share electrons?
When atoms lose and gain electrons, an ionic bond will form. When atoms share electrons, a covalent bond will form.
Why do you think atoms lose electrons to or gain electrons from other atoms?
to become stable
Can atoms lose or gain atoms to form elements?
No. Atoms of an element lose or gain electrons to form ions.
What is frequency what happens to the pitch of a sound when the frequency increases?
is it true or false that atoms often lose proton but seldom lose or gain electrons
Do atoms lose and gain electrons when a new substance is forming?
Some atoms lose electrons, some gain electrons, and some share electrons depending on what elements are involved and what compound is forming.
