Elements are neutral as their number of electrons equals the number of protons. If an atom has lost one of it's electrons it becomes a positively charged ion or an cation, if it gains an electron it's a negatively charged ion or an anion. Generally if an atom is on the right hand side of the Periodic Table it gains electrons to become negatively charged and fulfil it's valiance shell. If it's on the left hand side of the periodic table it tends to loose electrons and become positively charged. The amount of charge on each ion depends on the what the atoms are bonded to.
Example, NaCl (Table Salt) is actually Na+ Cl-
What else can I help you with?
Are all elements except noble gases ions?
No, not all elements except noble gases form ions. Noble gases are considered inert because they have a complete outer electron shell, making them stable and less likely to form ions. Other elements may gain or lose electrons to form ions.
Which elements contain multiple valences electron?
Almost all elements have multiple valence electrons, there are only 7 that don't. They are: hydrogen, lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. The elements have 1 valence electron. All other elements have anywhere from 2 to 8 valence electrons
Find the total Charge of a ring?
The total charge of a ring is the sum of the charges of all individual charge elements on the ring. It can be calculated by integrating the charge density function over the entire ring.
Do elements in the d block form ions of only one charge?
No, elements in the d block can form multiple ions with different charges. This is because they can lose different numbers of electrons from their outer d orbitals to achieve a stable electron configuration.
What made up all radioactive elements?
After disintegration all radioactive elements are transformed in other elements.
Do elements in a group have different charges?
All the elements in the periodic table of elements are electrically neutral; they do not have charges as elements, although they have the potential to engage in chemical reactions that will turn them into charged ions, in most cases. The different groups tell you what kinds of chemical reactions the elements are capable of, not what kind of charge they have.
In which sets are the charges given correctly for all the ions?
There are three sets of ions where the charges are given correctly: Group 1 elements (e.g., Na+), Group 2 elements (e.g., Mg2+), and aluminum (Al3+). These ions have fixed charges that do not vary.
How to find the ionic charge of an element or ion?
To find the ionic charge of an element or ion, you can look at the element's position on the periodic table. Elements in groups 1, 2, and 13 tend to have positive charges, while elements in groups 15, 16, and 17 tend to have negative charges. Transition metals can have multiple charges, so you may need to refer to a table of common charges for these elements.
Are all elements except noble gases ions?
No, not all elements except noble gases form ions. Noble gases are considered inert because they have a complete outer electron shell, making them stable and less likely to form ions. Other elements may gain or lose electrons to form ions.
Define ion word part in health?
ions are the charges on elements or compounds
how can i get my charges expunged if all of them I was found guilty?

How does unequal sharing of electrons occur and how does it affect molecules?
Atoms of some elements pull more strongly on shared electrons than do atoms of other elements. As a result, the electrons are pulled more toward one atom, causing the bonded atoms to have slight electrical charges. These charges are not as strong as the charges on ions, however.
What element of the TAPES system are critical?
All elements of TAPES system are critical
What kind of numbers in a redox reaction the elements change from the reactants to the products?
The ionic charges. oxidation
Which elements contain multiple valences electron?
Almost all elements have multiple valence electrons, there are only 7 that don't. They are: hydrogen, lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. The elements have 1 valence electron. All other elements have anywhere from 2 to 8 valence electrons
What is commonly used in chemistry?
Elements. Like oxygen and hydrogen and nitrogen, those are gases. Metals, like aluminum and iron. Metalloids, like sillicone and boron. Elements are the essential "elements"(WHAT!!!) of chemistry. There is also a ton of math (really it's all about math), and calculations about charges (positive or negative) and balancing equations and moles(unit of mass for substances). But mostly its all math.
How do formulas express composition of compounds?
They list the elements in a molecule, numbers of each, and positive or negative charges.
