An atom that gains an electron?
An atom that has gained an electron has a negative charge and is called an anion.
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.
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.
What is a neutral atom that gains or loses electrons?
A neutral atom that gains or loses electrons is now an ION. If it loses electrons to become M^(n+), then it is a CATION. If it gains electrons to become X^(n-), then it is an ANION. NB Atoms that gain or lose electrons are no longer atoms , but IONS.
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 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 atom that gains an electron is called?
an anion
An atom that gains an electron?

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

If an atom gains an electron it is known as this and has a negative charge?
if an atom gains an eletron it is more negative and ic called a anion

What forms when an atom has lost or gained electrons?
When an atom looses an electron is called "a cation, when gains is called an "anion".
