What is a group of atoms with with a positive or negative charge?
A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge.
What is an atom or group of atoms that has become electrically changed?
When an atom or group of atoms becomes electrically charged, it is referred to as an ion. If it has a positive charge (+) it is called a cation, and if it has a negative charge (-), it is called an anion.
How would you determine which of a group of atoms acquires the most negative charge in a covalent bond with hydrogen?
In a covalent bond neither group of atoms would gain any charge since the electrons are "shared" between two atoms.
An atom or group of atoms that carries an electric charge is called an?
Electrically charged atoms are known as ions. Ions occur when an atom looses or gains electrons. A normal atom is neutral, because it has the same number of positive protons and negative neutrons. When electrons are lost or gained, the atom can become positive (a cation) or negative (an anion). When an atom is positeve or negative, it is electrically charged.
A ketone bears a negative charge on what atom of the carbonyl group?
ketone bears negative charge on the oxygen atom of the carbonyl group.
What is a group of atoms with with a positive or negative charge?
A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge.
What is it when a group of atoms have an electric charge?
Ions are formed when atoms have charges. Cations are species with positive charge. Anions are species with negative charge.
What is the difference between ions and electrons?
An ion is an atom or group of atoms that has an electrical charge from having either gained or lost electrons. An ion may have either a positive or a negative charge. An electron is a subatomic particle that carries a negative charge and is usually found in the orbitals of atoms and ions.
What is polyatomic atoms?
a tightly bound group of atoms that behaves as a unit and has a positive or negative charge
What is the name of any atom or group of atoms with a negative charge?
Anion/Anions.
What is an atom or a group of atoms having a net electrical charge?
It is an ion.
What is an atom or group of atoms that has become electrically changed?
When an atom or group of atoms becomes electrically charged, it is referred to as an ion. If it has a positive charge (+) it is called a cation, and if it has a negative charge (-), it is called an anion.
How would you determine which of a group of atoms acquires the most negative charge in a covalent bond with hydrogen?
In a covalent bond neither group of atoms would gain any charge since the electrons are "shared" between two atoms.
What is the group of atoms which behaves as if it were a unit with a charge is called?
Ions. Usually negative ions, but not always.
What are the polyatomic ions?
polyatomic ions are those ions which carry more than one atom,we can say that a group of atoms having single charge( which may be positive or negative) are polyatomic ions.
What is polytomic ion?
A Polyatomic ion is a covalently bonded group of atoms that has a positive or negative charge and acts as a unit
What is known as a polyatomic ion is a positively or negatively charge and covalently bonded group of atoms?
A polyatomic ion is held together by covalent bonds between atoms. They can be either positive or negative. For example, the ammonium ion, NH4+, has a positive charge, and the sulfate ion, SO42-, has a negative charge.
