No.
Ions (charged particles) are formed by the loss or gain of electrons.
In an atom, there are equal numbers of electrons (negatively charged) and protons (positively charged) so atoms are neutral. If an atom were to lose electrons, there would be more protons than electrons so a positive ion (cation) would be formed. If an atom were to gain electrons, there would be more electrons than protons so a negative ion (anion) would be formed.
Atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons in the nucleus (so they have the same chemical properties but different atomic masses) are called isotopes.
No, a weak acid donates a proton (H+ ion) when it dissociates in water, rather than gaining one. This donation of a proton is what causes the weak acid to ionize and form its conjugate base.
A carbonate ion would be a proton acceptor, making it a base. _________________________________________________________________ False, CO3 2- is an acidic ion, but forms a weak acid. Hence, it dissociates into H2O and CO2.
The molecule of nitric acid lose a hydrogen atom, not only a proton.
An ion with a charge of -3 is formed when an atom of an element gains three extra electrons. This can happen through chemical reactions where the atom accepts electrons from other atoms that are willing to donate them. One example is nitrogen, which can form the nitride ion (N3-) by gaining three electrons.
Strontium (Sr) would typically form a positive ion, since it is a Group 2 metal that tends to lose 2 electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. Tellurium (Te) is a nonmetal and would typically form a negative ion by gaining electrons.
every element
Hydrogen ion is the only element that has no neutron and one proton. That is why it is basically a proton.
A single proton (not part of a larger nucleus) is the same as a positive hydrogen ion.
Water (H2O) donates a proton (H+) to form the hydroxide ion (OH-).
Compound known as chloride contain the element chlorine, typically in the form of the chloride ion.
Because it is a proton. A hydrogen atom is a proton and an electron; if you take the electron away to form a positive ion, all that's left is the proton.
An atom of a different element.
No, a weak acid donates a proton (H+ ion) when it dissociates in water, rather than gaining one. This donation of a proton is what causes the weak acid to ionize and form its conjugate base.
No. Fluorine is a chemical element. It will readily form fluoride ions.
which element can only formed one ion
Every Group I element (that is, the ones in the first column) have a ... Thus, bromine, oxygen, and carbon thus all form negative ions, while magnesium forms a positive ion (+2)
A carbonate ion would be a proton acceptor, making it a base. _________________________________________________________________ False, CO3 2- is an acidic ion, but forms a weak acid. Hence, it dissociates into H2O and CO2.
