What happens when a hydrogen atom with a charge of plus 1 comes in contact with a chlorine atom with a charge of-1?

HCl is formed.


What is the ion charge of a helium atom Is it plus 1?

Helium atom is neutral and has no charge. It becomes a positive ion with a charge of +1 when it loses an electron.


What particle in a atom lives in the nucleus and has a charge of 1 plus?

Proton


An atom that has plus 1 charge must have fewer what than usual?

Electrons. Electrons carry a negative charge so when one is removed from the atom the atom gains a net positive charge.


Why does bromine commonly have -1 charge while potassium has a plus 1 charge?

Because of the number of electrons in the outermost shell of the atom.


Why does the ammonium ion have a plus 1 charge?

The ammonium ion has a plus 1 charge because it is formed by the donation of a lone pair of electrons from the nitrogen atom to a proton, resulting in an extra positive charge on the nitrogen atom. This donation creates a more stable structure with a full outer shell of electrons for nitrogen.


What forms an ion with a charge of plus 1?

Many different chemical species can form an ion with a plus 1 change. The most common example of cations of this type are the alkali metals, such as sodium and potassium.


Which radioisotope has an atom that emits a particle with a mass number of 0 and a charge of plus 1?

Proton emission is a type of radioactive decay where an atom emits a proton with a mass number of 0 and a charge of plus 1. An example of a radioisotope that undergoes proton emission is iodine-123.


What charge is the atom?

-1


What is the charge of electrons in an atom?

The charge of electrons in an atom is negative, with a magnitude of -1. This negative charge is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to the positive charge of protons in the nucleus, which helps maintain the overall neutrality of the atom.


Which is larger a sodium atom or sodium ion with a plus 1 charge?

The sodium atom is much bigger than a sodium cation with a plus 1 charge, because the "lost" electron of the ion had a higher principal quantum number than any remaining electron in the ion and therefore was distributed through a larger volume of space than any of the remaining electrons.


When a neutral atom captures a free electron what is the net charge on the atom?

The charge of an atom who captured a single elektron is - or -1
