Ions are the formation of unbalanced atoms due to an attraction caused by a near completion of an electron ring in one atom and extra or valence electrons in the outer ring of another. If an atom gains an extra electron its over all charge is negative and the opposite is true for the atom gaining an electron.
my egg.
Molecules are formed when atoms lose electrons and then attach themselves to other atoms
Think about the question and each of the answers, particularly d) Polyatomic atoms. Even if I had no knowledge of chemistry, (d) would be the obvious answer. The question wants ions with MORE THAN ONE ATOM. Poly=Many/multiple, so 'polyatomic' quite literally means 'more than one atom'.
i am doing the same worksheet right now.... Molecule
ions
of course, ions are formed by loosing (cations) or gaining (anions) electrons. anions have more electrons than the atom from which it is formed.
Negative ions are formed when atoms accept electrons.
Positive ions (or cations) are formed when atoms lose electrons
No, not all crystals are formed by ions. Some crystals are formed by covalent bonds, where atoms share electrons, rather than by the attraction of ions. Additionally, some crystals can be formed by metallic bonds, where electrons are delocalized among a lattice of metal atoms.
False. Ions are formed from the loss or gain of electrons by atoms, resulting in a charged particle. Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons between atoms.
Milk contains ions, which are charged particles formed when atoms gain or lose electrons. Examples include calcium ions, potassium ions, and phosphorous ions. These ions play essential roles in various physiological processes in the body.
Ionic bonds are formed when metal atoms combine with nonmetal atoms. Metal atoms tend to lose electrons to form positive ions, while nonmetal atoms tend to gain electrons to form negative ions, resulting in the attraction between the oppositely charged ions forming the ionic bond.
Chemical bonds hold different atoms or ions together in a chemical compound. These bonds are formed through the sharing or transfer of electrons between the atoms or ions.
Ions are formed when neutral atoms are either losing electron(s) or gaining electron(s) and thus are transformed to either positively or negatively charged ions.
crystal lattice
Ions are formed when atoms gain or lose electrons. Positively charged cations are formed when atoms lose electrons. Negatively charged anions are formed when atoms gain electrons. Ionic bond is the force of attraction between cations and anions.
Atoms gain electrons to form negatively charged anions. Atoms lose electrons to form positively charged cations.
