When an atoms loses an electron it?
The atom is said to be ionized. (It can also be said to be oxidised.)
How many protons added to the nuclei of oxygen atoms so it will glow red?
An oxygen atom can only have 8 protons. If you were to add any it would no longer be oxygen. But if you were to add 2 protons to it, it would become the element neon. When neon becomes ionized it glows a an orangy-red.
Atoms that combine if they become positively or negatively charged have what bonds?
Ionic bonds.
How did the earths atmosphere change composition to become todays nitrogen and oxygen atmosphere?
your question is... How did the Earth`s atmosphere change composotion to became today`s nitrogen and oxygen atmosphere? Answer: it happend with the help of solar untraviolet (uv) radiation,the very thing what we worry about now for its cancer-causing ability
Is there ice in the atmosphere?
no but you have to answer to your teacher. Edit : Yes, there is a small amount of ice in the Earth's atmosphere in the form of high altitude clouds. It's cold enough for water to become little ice crystals.
The ionosphere is so named because of the presence of ions which are?
the ionosphere is the part of the earthâ??s atmosphere that is ionized by solar and cosmic radiation. High energy emitted from the sun cause the atoms in this area to lose electrons and become ionized and positively charged.
When plasma gets de-ionized what elemental particles does it become?
None. It becomes normal atoms.
Are Ions charged atoms or groups of atoms?
Either one. You can have an ionized atom or an ionized molecule. Many ionized molecules are radicals that had been part of a larger molecule and the event that separated them also ionized the radical. This is what free radicalsare.
How is gases and plasma different?
A plasma is a gas where the atoms are ionized (usually it is so hot that the atoms are completely ionized, the nuclei and electrons are completely separate).
What causes auroras on the moon?
The moon has no atmosphere, so it has no auroras. Auroras need oxygen and nitrogen atoms to emit light when they are ionized when struck by solar wind particles.
Do ionic bonds form between ionized atoms?
Yes, only if there are both ions with positive charges and ions with negative charges among the ionized atoms.
What plasma made of?
Gas of multiply ionized atoms.
The layer of the atmosphere which has proven very useful to people because it reflects radio waves is the?
The "F" layer is high altitude region of ionized atoms that reflects radio waves.
Do mercury and venus have atmosphere and ozone?
Mercury does not have what we would call an atmosphere. It is very, very thin , a collection of a few atoms per cubic meter, some being ionized from the surface. It is less than a trillionth of Earth's.
How many electrons do carbon atoms have?
Carbon atoms have 6 electrons, when non-ionized
When an atoms loses an electron it?
The atom is said to be ionized. (It can also be said to be oxidised.)
In what layer of the atmosphere do you find ionized gas particles?
The "ionosphere".
