Atoms are neutral on the Periodic Table. Ions consist of more or less electrons than atoms.


Is sulfur hexafluoride a ionic compound?

No, sulfur hexafluoride is not an ionic compound. It is a covalent compound composed of sulfur and fluorine atoms sharing electrons, rather than transferring them to form ions.


How can there more than 1000 different atoms when there are only about 100 different elements?

My guess is that there are isotopes and ions of each element that count as different atoms.


Do atoms of sulfur have a different number of electrons than atoms of any other element?

Every atom of one element has different no. of electrons than any atom of any other element.


Are metals ions larger or smaller than neutral atoms they came from?

Metal ions are smaller than the neutral atoms they came from.


How are molecules different than ions or atoms?

Molecules are formed when two or more atoms chemically bond together, while atoms are the smallest unit of matter that retains the properties of an element. Ions are atoms or molecules that have gained or lost electrons, resulting in a positive or negative charge, respectively.


Do ions have more electrons than the atoms from which they were formed?

of course, ions are formed by loosing (cations) or gaining (anions) electrons. anions have more electrons than the atom from which it is formed.


How many ions does sulfur have?

Why does one mole of carbon atoms have a smaller mass than one mole of sulfur atoms?

For the same reason that one dozen pencils has a smaller mass than one dozen bricks. Each atom of carbon weighs less than each atom of sulfur, and a mole of each has the same number of atoms, so a mole S will weigh more than a mole C.

If a mixture of iron filings and sulfur will make the iron and sulfur atoms combined checically what would that be?

When iron filings and sulfur are heated together, they form iron sulfide, a compound with the chemical formula FeS. This is a chemical reaction where the iron and sulfur atoms combine to form a new substance with different properties than the original elements.


How are ions and polyatomic ion different?

Ions are charged particles formed by gaining or losing electrons, while polyatomic ions are charged groups of atoms that remain together and carry a net charge. Polyatomic ions contain multiple atoms bonded together, whereas ions can be a single atom or a group of atoms.
