How many electrons does the neutral atom gain or lose when Cr3 plus forms?
A neutral Chromium atom loses 3 electrons to become a Chromium (III) ion.
What does an atom become if it gains or loses electrons?
An atom becomes an ion if it gains or loses electrons.
What do you call an atom that gains or loses electrons?
An atom that gains or loses electrons is called an ion. If it gains electrons, it results in a negative ion called an anion. If it loses electrons, it results in a positive ion called a cation.
When an aluminum atom loses it's valence electrons what is the charge on the resulting ion?
Aluminum loses 3 electrons. Since electrons have a negative charge losing them would make the aluminum atom lessnegative, which is positive. Hence, Al+3
What type of ion is when an atom loses electrons?
A positive ion. Originally atoms have a neutral charge with equal amount of electrons and protons. If atom loses electrons, it still has the same amount of protons so it becomes a positive ion
How many electrons does the neutral atom gain or lose when Cr3 plus forms?
A neutral Chromium atom loses 3 electrons to become a Chromium (III) ion.
What does an atom become if it gains or loses electrons?
An atom becomes an ion if it gains or loses electrons.
An atom that has lost or gained electrons is an?
an ion
If an atom loses an electrons what will its resulting charge be?
An atom that loses one or more electrons becomes positively charged, because the number of protons (+) in the nucleus will outnumber the electrons (-).
What do you call an atom that gains or loses electrons?
An atom that gains or loses electrons is called an ion. If it gains electrons, it results in a negative ion called an anion. If it loses electrons, it results in a positive ion called a cation.
What is a atom yhat loses electrons?
An ion.
What does an atom become when it loses or gains electrons?
it becomes an ion
How many electrons will Calcium gain in forming an ion?
None.Calcium loses 2 electrons to form an ion.
When an aluminum atom loses it's valence electrons what is the charge on the resulting ion?
Aluminum loses 3 electrons. Since electrons have a negative charge losing them would make the aluminum atom lessnegative, which is positive. Hence, Al+3
How many electrons does chrominum gain to form an ion?
Chromium lose 6 or 3 electrons.
What is it called when atom has a positive or negative charge?
Atoms with a positive or negative charge resulting from a loss or gain of electrons are known as ions.
What type of ion is when an atom loses electrons?
A positive ion. Originally atoms have a neutral charge with equal amount of electrons and protons. If atom loses electrons, it still has the same amount of protons so it becomes a positive ion
