A hydrogen nucleus has got just one electron, thereby meaning that it can either accept one more electron or give away its sole electron to attain the stable electronic configuration. However, it usually shows the non metallic behaviour of accepting an electron.
Yes it will. This is a Chlorine atom accepting an electron to become a chloride ion.
A bromine ion has a -1 charge. That's because it is a halogen, and it is an electron "borrower" which wants to steal an electron to "complete" its outer electron shell. When it snags an electron to fulfill that tendancy of atoms to attain inert gas electron configuration, it ends up with that "extra" electron and a -1 charge. This is typical of all halogens, those elements that make up the Group 17 elements.
The electron. There are three particles in an atom , they are:- Proton ; carries a charge of (+), and has an arbitrary mass of '1' Neutron ; carries no charge (o) , and has an arbitrary mass of '1' The above two particles are found the the nucleus of an atom, and are collectively named 'nucleons'. Electron ; carries a charge of (-), and has an arbitrary mass of 1/1860. It is found outside the nucleus of an atom.

-1, but since there are two chlorines the charge is -2.
Every electron has an electrical charge of minus one. If an electron is added to an atom, then the atom also acquires this electrical charge. If an electron is shared by an atom (by means of a covalent bond) then the atom will acquire a partial negative charge, since it doesn't have all of the electron or all of its charge.
Electron Carries A Negative Charge.
For Mg to acquire the same electron configuration as Neon, it must lose 2 of its valence electrons. It thus obtains a 2+ charge. The 2 electrons that it loses can go to an accepting atom, such as O, S, Cl, etc. to form an ionic bond, where the accepting atom has a negative charge.
No. The electron and proton have the same amount of charge. Its just that the electron's charge is negative and the proton's charge is positive.
The charge on an electron is never equal to the charge on a neutron. An electron carries one negative charge and a neutron has no net charge.
Electron's have a negative charge, Protons have a positive charge.
An electron has a negative charge. Protons are positively charged, and neutrons have no charge. ************************* The charge is measured at 1.60217646 × 10-19 Coulombs.
