if by symbols you mean the letters you see on the Periodic Table then a symbol is an atom
e.g. Fe = iron
C = Carbon
several of these symbols next to one another would be a molecule
e.g. C2H5OH = ethanol
It is the main report physicals of explanation exire
A.h2o
B.o2
C.NaCi
D.CO2
A symbol represent an atom of a element by truncating the name of the element or the truncating the Latin name of the element.
Each chemical element has a chemical symbol, also ions.
A chemical formula for the compound.
Carbon's symbol is C. A carbon atom has no charge, but a carbon ion has a +2 charge.
Nitraite = NO3 One Nitrogen atom (N) Three Oxygen atoms (O3)
S2- the sulfide ion
The chemical symbol for bicarbonate is HCO3-. This is because it has one carbon atom surrounded by three atoms and a hydrogen atom attached to one of them. The negative charge comes from one formal charge.
The symbol for the cation formed when a potassium atom loses one electron is K+, and is named the potassium ion.
a positive sign in an atom symbol denotes an ion, for example, Fe2+
P-
The symbol is S2- because to become an ion a sulfur atom gains two electrons and each electron has a 1- charge.
Carbon's symbol is C. A carbon atom has no charge, but a carbon ion has a +2 charge.
Nitraite = NO3 One Nitrogen atom (N) Three Oxygen atoms (O3)
potassium
S2- the sulfide ion
The chemical symbol for bicarbonate is HCO3-. This is because it has one carbon atom surrounded by three atoms and a hydrogen atom attached to one of them. The negative charge comes from one formal charge.
This sodium ion is denoted by: Na+
The symbol for the cation formed when a potassium atom loses one electron is K+, and is named the potassium ion.
Beryllium (Be) has a valence of +2. The ion could be written as (Be^2) or (Be+2) …
HNO3 H being the Hydrogen atom, and NO3 being the Nitrate ion.
