What is formed when an atom gains or loses an electron?
An atom forms an ion when it gains or loses an electron. If an atom gains an electron, it becomes a negatively charged ion (anion). If an atom loses an electron, it becomes a positively charged ion (cation).
What happens when a atom gains an electron?
When an atom gains an electron, it becomes negatively charged and forms an anion. This process is known as reduction, and it can change the chemical properties of the atom by affecting its reactivity and ability to form bonds.
If a chlorine atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called an?
Ion. Any atom that loses or gains an electron becomes an ion.
If chlorine atom were to attract an electron from sodium the chlorine atom would become a?
positively
What is a neutral atom that gains or loses electrons?
A neutral atom that subsequently gains or loses one [or more] electrons is called an ion. If it gains an electron [or electrons] it will have a negative charge. If it loses an electron [or electrons] it will have a positive charge.
An atom that gains an electron gains what type of ion?
an atom that gains an electron becomes a negative ion, called an anion.
What does an atom do when it gains an electron?
it forms an ionic bond with the atom it has received an electron from.
What is the result of an atom that gains or loses an electron?
This is called a redox reaction. An atom that loses an electron is oxidized and an atom that gains an electron is reduced.
What does an atom release more easily when it gains an electron?
An Electron
What atom that gains an electron is called?
an anion
When an atom gains an electron what charge does it have?
An atom that gains three electrons will become an ion with a 3- charge.
What is formed when an atom gains or loses an electron?
An atom forms an ion when it gains or loses an electron. If an atom gains an electron, it becomes a negatively charged ion (anion). If an atom loses an electron, it becomes a positively charged ion (cation).
If a chlorine atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charges particle called an?
Ion. Any atom that loses or gains an electron becomes an ion.
What is the name of a chlorine atom gains one electron?
When a chlorine atom gains one electron, it forms a chloride ion with a single negative charge.
What happens when a atom gains an electron?
When an atom gains an electron, it becomes negatively charged and forms an anion. This process is known as reduction, and it can change the chemical properties of the atom by affecting its reactivity and ability to form bonds.
When a atom gaines a electron?
When an atom gains an electron the no of negatively charged particles increases inside the atom and the atom gets negatively charged.
What is the energy change that occurs when an atom gains electrons called?
The energy change that occurs when an atom gains electrons is called the
