Sodium and chlorine can bond together Sodium gives chlorine a needed electron What is chlorines charge after accepting the electron?
Chlorine's charge becomes negative after accepting an electron because it gains one extra electron, turning it into a chloride ion with a -1 charge.
Chlorine can be found as an ion with a 1- charge How does this happen?
Chlorine gains an electron to achieve a stable electron configuration, resulting in a 1- charge. This occurs when chlorine forms an ionic bond with other elements by accepting an electron to fill its outer electron shell.
Why is a hydrogen nucleus charge?
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.
Charge of chlorine?
The charge of chlorine is -1. It typically gains one electron to achieve a stable octet electron configuration.
What is the charge of a bromine 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.
Sodium and chlorine can bond together Sodium gives chlorine a needed electron What is chlorines charge after accepting the electron?
Chlorine's charge becomes negative after accepting an electron because it gains one extra electron, turning it into a chloride ion with a -1 charge.
Sodium gives chlorine a needed electron what is chlorines change after accepting the electron?
Chlorine gains one electron from sodium, leading to the formation of a chloride ion. The chloride ion carries a charge of -1 due to the gained electron.
Sodium and chlorine can bond together. Sodium gives chlorine a needed electron. What is chlorine's charge after accepting the electron?
-1
What is chlorines electron dot notation?
Cl....
Sodium and chlorine can bond together Sodium gives chlorine a needed electron What is chlorine's charge after accepting the electron?
Chlorine's charge would be negative because it gained an electron, which results in it having an extra negative charge.
Chlorine can be found as an ion with a 1- charge How does this happen?
Chlorine gains an electron to achieve a stable electron configuration, resulting in a 1- charge. This occurs when chlorine forms an ionic bond with other elements by accepting an electron to fill its outer electron shell.
What is the charge of a fluoride atom?
The charge on a fluoride ion is -1.
If chlorine atom were to attract an electron from sodium the chlorine atom would become a?
positively
Why does accepting an electron cause this atom to take on a partially negative charge?
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.
What charge does an electron have?
An electron has a negative charge.
Does an electron have a positive charge?
No, an electron has a negative charge.
What happens to an atom of magnesium (Mg) when it forms an ionic bond in which it has the same electron configuration as the noble gas neon?
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.
