a bromide ion is formed,
the ion formed has a -1 charge,
and the ion formed is an anion
When an atom gains an electron it becomes an ion with a charge of negative one. This charge comes from the electron's negativity, which changes the atom's balanced ratio of electrons to protons.
A neutral atom that subsequently gains or loses one [or more] electrons is called an ion. If it gains an electron [or electrons] it will have a negative charge. If it loses an electron [or electrons] it will have a positive charge.
bromine has 17 electrons in the valence shell. by gaining one electron it gets the electronic configuration of the next noble gas. hence it gains one electron and forms -1 ion
An atom that gains an electron because negatively charge by one unit of elementary charge (1.602X10-19 coulombs) like F- as an atom that gains 2 electron will have 2 negative elementary charge
Bromine has seven electrons in its outermost energy level. It can get the stable electron configuration by getting one electron from another atom which makes the -1 charge.
If bromine gains one more electron, then it will have 36 electrons total. The only neutral atom with 36 electrons is just the next element on the periodic table, Krypton.
One electron
Both. Bromine gains one electron in ionic compounds. Bromine will share electron in covalent compounds.
The ionic notation for Bromine is Br-. It gains one electron to form Br-
lose only one electron
chloride
while an atom that gains electrons and becomes negatively charged is known as an anion
It becomes whenever it gains one or more electron.
When a fluorine atom gains an electron, it forms a negative ion.
When an atom gains a positive charge it either gains a proton or gains an electron It could also lose one of them
When an atom gains an electron it becomes an ion with a charge of negative one. This charge comes from the electron's negativity, which changes the atom's balanced ratio of electrons to protons.
Electronegativity is the measure of pull one atom has on another. Electron affinity is the amount of energy that is released when a neutral atom gains an electron.
