How many electrons are lost or gained in the element o when they form ions?
atoms gain and lose electrons, so they can have a full outer shell of 8 electrons (or two electrons if its the innermost shell) when atoms lose electrons it is called oxidation and when they gain electrons they are said to be reduced. OIL RIG is most commonly used to help remember that oxidation is loss and reduction is gain of electons. when atoms lose electrons they are left with a positive charge and when they can electrons they have a negative charge.
How many atoms of Lithium and Fluorine are needed to create the total charge of zero?
To create a total charge of zero, lithium with an atomic number of 3 (Li) needs to lose one electron to form Li+ with a charge of +1. Fluorine with an atomic number of 9 (F) needs to gain one electron to form F- with a charge of -1. Therefore, one atom of lithium and one atom of fluorine are needed to create a compound with a total charge of zero.
How many minus charges does magnesium lose?
Magnesium typically loses two electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration, resulting in a +2 charge. Therefore, it loses two negative charges when it forms a magnesium ion (Mg²⁺).
What is an atoms overall electrical charge?
Neutral. An atom has as many negative electrons in its shells as there are positive protons in its nucleus. Thus overall the positive and negative charges are balanced out. Should an atom gain or lose an electron it will then become an 'Ion' which will have an overall negative or positive (respectively) charge.
How many electrons does Mg gain or lose?
Two electrons.
How large was the confederate army at Gettysburg?
Many historians are debating about it today. Over 6000 men died in pickets charge. Well, my best guess would be a strong 60,000 men (many deserted as they entered the north)
How many games did Mike Ruddock lose when in charge of Wales?
2, these were against Australia and New Zealand.
How many electrons will sulfur gain or lose What will its charge be?
Sulfur, with its 6 valence electrons, will gain 2 electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration, resulting in a charge of -2.
How many electrons will sodium gain or lose in forming an ion?
Because Sodium is in group 1, it tends to lose one electron when forming an ion, therefore having a charge of +1
How many years does a first degree murder charge get you in North Carolina?
A first degree murder charge gets you life w/o parole in most cases.
How many electrons are needed to gain or lose in potassium?
Electrons lose in case of potassium. It looses 1 electron.
How many electrons do group 1 elements lose to become ions?
Group 1 elements a.k.a. Alkali metals lose 1 electron to form 1+ ions
How many men did North and South Vietnam lose during the Second Indochina war?
they lost exactly 256 men
How many electrons does boron lose when forming a ion?
Boron typically loses 3 electrons when forming an ion, as it has 3 electrons in its outer shell. This results in a +3 charge for the boron ion.
Which of the following does a histogram resemble the most?
A picket fence, except for some odd reason they used many different length pickets instead of making them all the same as they usually do.
How many electrons does lithium lose or gain to achieve a stable octet configuration?
Lithium is in group 1 of the Periodic How_many_electrons_must_the_lithium_atom_give_up_to_become_stable, so it must lose one electron for it to attain a full outermost energy level and become stable.The charge will then be positive (+).
How many joules of energy does each coulomb of charge have at the battery terminals?
That depends on the voltage. In general, a coulomb of charge will either gain or lose (depending on the direction) one joule of energy for every volt of potential difference. For example, if the battery has 12 V, a coulomb of charge will gain or lose 12 joules of energy when going from one terminal to the other.
