Krypton is a noble gas. Helium, Neon, Argon, Xenon and Krypton are all notoriously reluctant to form compounds and exist as monatomic atoms. Free krypton would not have a charge.
(That, by the way is a standard chemistry groaner: "There's no charge--it's free!"...right up there with "I'm positive I lost my electron.")

∙ 12y agoKrypton is a noble gas and does not form compounds easily; therefore, we say that it has an oxidation state (charge) of 0. In the rare cases it does form compounds, it has been reported to have an oxidation state of +2.

∙ 14y agoKrypton is a noble gas meaning it already has 8 elections in its valence shell, and hence stable needing no more or less elections.

What element forms an ion with an electronic configuration of Kr and -2 charge?
Te or Tellurium
What ion is isoelectric with Kr?
Bromide ion is isoelectronic with Krypton.
What tripositive ion has the electron configuration of Kr 4d3?
Mo^3+ = [Kr] 4d^3
Which element forms a 3 ion that has the electron configuration kr 4d 6?
[Kr]4d6 ion has 42 electrons. As it is a 3+ ion, the parent atom would have 45 electrons. This would make it Rhodium Rh.
Does an ion have a charge?
An ion does have a charge. That is what makes it an ion.

[Kr]4d6 ion has 42 electrons. As it is a 3+ ion, the parent atom would have 45 electrons. This would make it Rhodium Rh.
Does an ion have a charge?
An ion does have a charge. That is what makes it an ion.
How can you tell what Ion is likely form from an element such as Kr?
To determine the likely ion formed by an element like Kr (krypton), you need to consider its position on the periodic table. Kr is a noble gas located in the far right column, meaning it has a full valence electron shell and is stable. Noble gases do not readily gain or lose electrons, so Kr is unlikely to form an ion.
What is the electron configuration of selenium for a 2- ion?
The electron configuration of selenium for a 2- ion is [Kr]4s2.3d10.4p6.
What is an ion charge?
This is the electrical charge of the ion.
What is an atom with an electrical charge on it called?
An atom with a charge (either positive or negative) is called an "ion." An ion with a positive charge is called a "cation" and an ion with a negative charge is called an "anion ."
What is the ion charge of molybdenum?
The charge of the molybdenum ion is +2.
Hydroxide ion has a charge of?
The hydroxide ion has a 1- charge.
What is the charge of bromide ion?
The bromide ion has a 1- charge.
