No, an ion does not have a neutral charge. Ions are atoms or molecules that have gained or lost electrons, resulting in a positive or negative charge.
When an electron is added to a unipositive ion, the resulting atom gains a negative charge and becomes a neutral atom. The electron neutralizes the positive charge of the ion, balancing the overall charge of the atom.
The charge on a chloride ion (Cl-) is -1. In aluminum chloride (AlCl3), aluminum has a charge of +3, so the overall charge of the compound is neutral.
The charge on ion X in X2O3 is +3. This is because the overall charge of the compound is neutral, and there are three oxygen atoms each with a charge of -2, so the X ion must have a charge of +3 to balance it out.
proton: positive chargemolecule: no charge, neutralelectron: negative chargeion: can be either positively or negatively charged
A positive ion can become a neutral atom by gaining electrons. When a positive ion gains one or more electrons, it becomes neutral because the negative charge of the electron(s) cancels out the positive charge of the ion.
An ion has an electrical charge.
When an electron is added to a unipositive ion, the resulting atom gains a negative charge and becomes a neutral atom. The electron neutralizes the positive charge of the ion, balancing the overall charge of the atom.
The product is neutral.
ION
by definition, ions are charged atoms. so a neutral ion doesn't exist
Helium atom is neutral and has no charge. It becomes a positive ion with a charge of +1 when it loses an electron.
A chromic ion, Cr3+, has a charge of +3 due to the loss of three electrons from a neutral chromium atom.
Non it is neutral
A neutron, which has neutral charge
The neutral hydrogen atom is neutral; the ion (H+) is positive.
It is because there is an equal amount of positive and negative charge to produce a neutral charge. Just the presence of neutrons does not make the atom neutral. An atom will lose its neutral charge if it loses or gains electrons and becomes an ion
The charge of an ion depends on the number of electrons gained or lost. Since the charge of an ion is not mentioned in this case, it is typically neutral as an atom, having an equal number of protons and electrons.
