In a neutral atom of nickel (Ni28) has 28 electrons. These 28 electrons each have a charge of -1, and that makes a total electron charge of -28.

For the charge in coulombs, take the charge of one electron, which is -1.602 × 10-19 coulombs and multiply it by 28.

This isn't right because you have to account for the protons in the nucleus of the atom. It should be zero. I think what your looking for is its ionization charge, which I don't know off the top of my head

Does nickel have a positive charge?

Yes nickel is a cation. the formula for Nickel would be Ni+ for Nickel II it would be Ni+2 and for Nickel III it would be Ni+3

The answer is Ni3+


What the charge for Nickel atom?

Nickel has an atomic number of 28- so if there aare only 26 electrons - 2 are missing and the ion will have a harge of 2+.


What is the charge of nickel when two electrons are lost?

The charge of nickel when two electrons are lost is +2. When nickel loses two electrons, it becomes a cation with a charge of +2.


Is Nickel bromide ionic or covalent?

Nickel bromide is an ionic compound. Nickel typically forms cations with a charge of +2, while bromine forms anions with a charge of -1. In nickel bromide, the nickel cation and bromine anion are held together by ionic bonds.


What is the chemical formula for nickel iii and phosphate?

the formula is Ni3(PO4)2 :) The correct answer is Ni PO4, the answer shown is for Nickel II phosphate.

Yes


How do you write the formula for nickel III sulfate?

The formula for nickel III sulfate is Ni2(SO4)3. Since sulfate (SO4) has a charge of -2, each nickel ion (Ni) must have a charge of +3 to balance the overall charge.


What compound is NiPO4?

NiPO4 is Nickel (III) Phospate. The PO4 is a polyatomic particle which is called phosphate and has a charge of 3- and in this example Ni has a charge of 1+, so the charges are switched giving Ni a 3+ charge with stays positive and is written in the middle of the two names. [edit] Not quite... the nomenclature Nickel (III) indicates the Nickel has a charge of 3+. Nickel will either have a charge of 2+ or 3+, it can not have a charge of 1+, so I don't know what the original answerer was saying with switching charges bumping up the ionization of the Nickel. Basically, Ni3+ + PO43- -> NiPO4 OR if you are dealing with Nickel (II) Ni2+ + PO43- -> Ni3(PO4)2 which is also Nickel Phosphate Any way, I just wanted to correct the original post, but the answer to the original question is Nickel Phosphate, or as the original poster stated Nickel (III) Phosphate. -Mike


What is the formula for nickel(II) ion?

The compound nickel (II) nitride consists of a nickel ion with a +2 charge and a nitride ion with a -3 charge. Since this compound is neutral, the charges must balance. Consequently, it can be determined that the formula of nickel (II) nitride is Ni3N2.
