When a sodium atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called a an?
ION haha apex is pretty boring huh
What kind of ions do a sodium atom and a chlorine atom become when a valance electron is transferred one to the other?
First off sodium. Sodium is an alkali metal and when alkali metals react they lose an electron. When an atom loses an electron, it becomes positively charged. Chlorine is in the halogen family and when they react they gain one electron, when an atom gains an electron, it becomes negative charged. So, Sodium=Positive Chlorine=Negative I got this as an homework question yesterday, took like 5mins but i finally figured it out :)
When sodium forms an ionic bond with chlorine the sodium atom donates an electron to chlorine and becomes a 19 charged ion?
Actually, when sodium forms an ionic bond with chlorine, the sodium atom donates one electron to chlorine, resulting in the formation of a positive sodium ion and a negative chloride ion. The sodium ion becomes Na+ and the chloride ion becomes Cl-.
What kind of ions do a sodium atom and a chlorine atom become when a valence electron is transferred from one to the other?
When a valence electron is transferred from a sodium atom to a chlorine atom, the sodium atom becomes a positively charged sodium ion (Na+) and the chlorine atom becomes a negatively charged chloride ion (Cl-). These ions form an ionic bond due to the attraction between the opposite charges.
What kinds of ions do a sodium atom and a chlorine atom become when a valence electron is transferred from one to the other?
sodium becomes positive ( as it loses a negative electron but still hs the same number of + protons) with a single + charge. chlorine becomes negative ( as it gains an extra negative electron but still hs the same number of + protons) with a single - charge. NaCl -------> Na+ Cl-
If a chlorine atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called an?
Ion. Any atom that loses or gains an electron becomes an ion.
If a chlorine atom gains or looses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called aan?
If a chlorine atom gains a valence electron, it becomes a negatively charged ion known as a chloride ion (Cl⁻). Conversely, if it were to lose a valence electron, which is less common for chlorine, it would become a positively charged ion, but this scenario is unlikely due to its high electronegativity. Thus, the most common ion formed by chlorine is Cl⁻ when it gains an electron.
When an electrom is transferred from sodium atom to a chlorine atom the chlorine atom becomes?
When an electron is transferred from a sodium atom to a chlorine atom, the chlorine atom becomes a negatively charged ion because it gains one electron. This negatively charged ion is known as chloride ion.
When a atom gain or looses a valence electron it become a charged particle called an?
When an atom gains or looses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called an ion
A charged particle results from losing or gaining electrons?
When a particle loses electrons, it becomes positively charged due to having more protons than electrons. Conversely, if a particle gains electrons, it becomes negatively charged as it has more electrons than protons. This imbalance in charge leads to the formation of a charged particle.
What particle has to be removed from an atom so the atom becomes positive?
An atom becomes positive when it loses an electron, as electrons are negatively charged particles. When an atom loses an electron, it becomes a positively charged ion.
When a sodium atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called a an?
ION haha apex is pretty boring huh
When an electron is transferred from the sodium Atom to a chlorine atom the chlorine atom becomes?
they form an ionic bond (:
When an atom gains or lose a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called an?
Ion.
What happens when chlorine atom gains an electron in its outer energy?
No! Electrons are negatively charged. A neutral atom gaining a electron will, by necessity, become negatively charged. Cl(-)
Which particle has a negative charge the electron or the neutron?
Electrons are negatively charged, and so are some ions. It depends what ion you are talking about. All atoms start off neutral, because they have the same number of protons and electrons. When they become ions, they gain charge. For instance, a sodium chloride ion (NaCl) the metal ion, sodium, becomes positively charged because it loses one negatively charged particle (an electron). Chlorine then becomes negative, because it has gained a negatively charged electron. Hope this helps :)
What is a negativly charged particle subatomic particle?
This particle is the electron, negatively charged.
