The charge of any ion is equal to the number of protons minus the number of electrons. In this case 75-79 = -4.
The electrical charge is -2.
55 protons and 53 electrons would have a net charge of 2+
It has a positive (+) charge.
If there are more electrons than protons, then the ion charge is negative. If there are more protons than elections, then the ion charge is positive.
If the 7 protons and 7 neutrons are in the nucleus of an atom, and the 9 electrons are in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus, then yes, this would represent an ion with a 2- charge. And, in looking at the periodic table, this would be a nitrogen atom with a 2- charge, which is hypothetical, since nitrogen atoms gain 3 electrons when forming ions, and would therefore actually have 10 electrons, and a charge of 3- . However, the important thing is that if an atom has an unequal number of protons and electrons, it is an ion.
It has 3 more protons than electrons. Protons are 1+ and electrons are 1-. So the charge on the hypothetical ion would be 3+
The charge is +2 but this ion doesn't exist.
The electrical charge is -2.
55 protons and 53 electrons would have a net charge of 2+
An ion that has more electrons than protons has a negative charge.
A neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons. Protons are positively charged, and electrons are negatively charged. Therefore if you have an ion with a -1 charge, it has one extra electron. So your ion has 85 protons.
The number of electrons are required to predict the charge of the ion.
Remember.. I f there are more electrons than protons in an ion the charge will be negative. Here there is a -4 charge because the electrons are higher than the protons, if it were the opposite the charge would be +4.
It has a positive (+) charge.
It has a positive (+) charge.
The charge on a carbonate ion is -2; therefore, the ion has two more electrons than protons.
If there are more electrons than protons, then the ion charge is negative. If there are more protons than elections, then the ion charge is positive.
