Phosphide, like every element, ultimately has the goal of having eight electrons in its outermost shell (satisfying the octet rule). To satisfy its octet, phosphide gains three electrons, which makes it more negative. Therefore, a phosphide ion's charge is -3.
The charge of a PO4 ion is 3-.
The charge on a phosphate ion is -3.
Iron can acquire a charge of +2 or +3 as an ion. The +2 charge is more common and is known as ferrous ion, while the +3 charge is less common and is known as ferric ion.
The charge of a phosphate ion (PO4) is -3.
The charge on ion X in X2O3 is +3. This is because the overall charge of the compound is neutral, and there are three oxygen atoms each with a charge of -2, so the X ion must have a charge of +3 to balance it out.
The charge of a PO4 ion is 3-.
The charge on a phosphate ion is -3.
No. The acetate ion has a -1 charge.
Iron can acquire a charge of +2 or +3 as an ion. The +2 charge is more common and is known as ferrous ion, while the +3 charge is less common and is known as ferric ion.
The charge of a phosphate ion (PO4) is -3.
The charge on ion X in X2O3 is +3. This is because the overall charge of the compound is neutral, and there are three oxygen atoms each with a charge of -2, so the X ion must have a charge of +3 to balance it out.
There is no iron ion in SCl3. The charge on the scandium ion is 3+.
In FeCl3, the iron (Fe) ion has a charge of +3. This is because each chloride (Cl) ion has a charge of -1, and since there are three chloride ions, the total negative charge is -3. To balance this, the iron ion must have a charge of +3, resulting in a neutral compound overall.
A chromic ion, Cr3+, has a charge of +3 due to the loss of three electrons from a neutral chromium atom.
Phosphorus typically forms a -3 charge when it becomes an ion by gaining three electrons.
A nitrogen ion with 10 electrons would have a charge of +3, as nitrogen normally has 7 electrons and a neutral nitrogen ion would have 7 electrons. By having 10 electrons, it has lost 3 electrons, resulting in a +3 charge.
The symbol for the antimonous ion is Sb3+, indicating that it has a +3 charge.
