What else can I help you with?
In sodium chloride which ion is negatively charged and whichis positively charged?
Na+ & Cl-
Is an ion is a charged particle?
yes. negatively charged ion is called cation and where as a positively charged ion is anion.
Between what do ionic bonds form?
it's a simultanious attraction between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion it's a simultanious attraction between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion
When an atom loses an electron it loses a?
Removal of an electron from an atom leaves a positively charged ion.
Is Cl- a cation or anion?
Cl -As this is a negatively charged ion it is a anion.
In sodium chloride which ion is negatively charged and whichis positively charged?
Na+ & Cl-
If a chlorine atom gains or loses a valence electron it becomes a charged particle called?
an ion. If a chlorine atom gains an electron, it becomes a negatively charged chloride ion (Cl-) and if it loses an electron, it becomes a positively charged chlorine cation (Cl+).
What force holds a molecule Na-Cl together in an ionic bond?
The electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged sodium ion (Na+) and the negatively charged chloride ion (Cl-) holds the Na-Cl molecule together in an ionic bond.
Is NH4Cl an ionic or covelent bond?
NH4Cl is an ionic bond. Ammonium (NH4+) is a positively charged ion and chloride (Cl-) is a negatively charged ion, resulting in an electrostatic attraction between them.
What kind of bond is Mg and Cl?
Ionic- the difference in electronegativity is high (Mg 1.31, Cl 3.16)
Contrast sodium and chloride ions including how they form. Write the symbol for each ion.?
Sodium ion (Na+) is a positively charged ion that forms when sodium atoms lose their outermost electron. Chloride ion (Cl-) is a negatively charged ion that forms when chlorine atoms gain an electron. The symbol for sodium ion is Na+ and for chloride ion is Cl-.
Is an ion is a charged particle?
yes. negatively charged ion is called cation and where as a positively charged ion is anion.
Between what do ionic bonds form?
it's a simultanious attraction between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion it's a simultanious attraction between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion
What is a positively or negativity charged atoms?
An ion is both positively and negatively charged.
What is a charged atom?
A charged atom is an ion. A positively charged version is a cation and a negatively charged one, an anion.
What a ion?
An ION is an atom that has lost or gained electrons. Thereby becoming a charged species. Once an atom becomes a charged species it is NO longer an atom but an ION . e.g. Sodium atom, symbol ' Na '. has 11 protons, 12 neutrons, and 11 electrons. When it loses (ionises) an electron it becomes a sodium ion. So sodium now has 11 protons, 12 neutrons, and 10 electrons . 11 protons (11+) and 10 electrons (10-). Doing a little sum 11+ 10- = 1(+) Hence the charge on the sodium ion is'+1' . Symbolically, shown as ' Na^(+) ' . and is named a sodium CATION. Similarly Chlorine atom, symbol ' Cl '. has 17 protons, 18 neutrons, and 17 electrons. When it has electron affinity it gains an electron it becomes a chloride ion. So chlorine now has 17 protons, 18 neutrons, and 18 electrons . 17 protons (17+) and 18 electrons (18-). Doing a little sum 17+ 18- = 1(-) Hence the charge on the chloride ion is'-1' . Symbolically, shown as ' Cl^(-) ' . and is named a chloride ANION.
What is cat ion?
A cation is a positively charged ion.
