What is a group of atoms with with a positive or negative charge?
A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge.
Tightly-bound group of atoms that behaves as a unit and carries a net charge?
An ionized molecule. Common examples are Sulphate ions, Nitrate ions and Phosphate ions.
What are polyatmoic ions?
Polyatomic ions are charged molecules that consist of two or more atoms covalently bonded together. These ions can carry a net positive or negative charge and behave as a single unit in chemical reactions. Examples include the nitrate ion (NO3-) and the sulfate ion (SO4^2-).
Ions are atoms or groups of atoms that have?
Ions are atoms that have a postive or negative charge because they have loss or gained negative particles (electons).
Do metals form positive ions?
No, metals do not form negative ions: Only non-metals form negative ions - this ability (to gain electrons) is intrinsic to the nature of non-metals. Only metals form positive ions - this ability (to lose electrons) is intrinsic to the nature of metals. A positive ion (cation) is formed by removing electron(s) from an atom or group of atoms. A negative ion (anion) is formed by gaining electron(s) an atom or group of atoms.
Why positive ions containing group of atoms are less common?
Positive ions containing groups of atoms, known as polyatomic ions, are less common than simple positive ions because they require the entire group of atoms to lose one or more electrons collectively, which is less favorable energetically. Additionally, the stability of these ions depends on the specific arrangement and bonding of the atoms within the group, making their formation and persistence in solution or solid phases more complex. As a result, while they do exist, they are typically less prevalent compared to monatomic ions.
What is a group of atoms with with a positive or negative charge?
A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge.
How do ions become positive?
Positive ions form when an atom or group of atoms loses one or more electrons.
What types of atoms form positive ions?
atoms that belong to a metal element....because metals always loose electrons and gain a positive charge..!
What is it when a group of atoms have an electric charge?
Ions are formed when atoms have charges. Cations are species with positive charge. Anions are species with negative charge.
Positive ions form when?
Positive ions (or cations) are formed when atoms lose electrons
Will atoms of a non metallic element form positive or negative ions?
Positive ions
What are the polyatomic ions?
polyatomic ions are those ions which carry more than one atom,we can say that a group of atoms having single charge( which may be positive or negative) are polyatomic ions.
What have an electric charge of 1?
Atoms with charge are called ions. These ions have either gained or lost valence electrons to gain a net positive or net negative charge. Ions with a positive electrical charge of positive 1 (+1) are metals in the Alkali Metals Group and Hydrogen. Ions with a negative electrical charge of 1 (-1) are elements in the Halogen Group.
Atoms with a positive or negative charge are called ions?
That's correct! When atoms gain or lose electrons, they become ions with an overall positive or negative charge. Positive ions are called cations, and negative ions are called anions.
Can atoms have positive or negative charge?
Yes, if they are ions
Tightly-bound group of atoms that behaves as a unit and carries a net charge?
An ionized molecule. Common examples are Sulphate ions, Nitrate ions and Phosphate ions.
