What is formed when a single atom of Krypton?
This single atom remain an atom of krypton !
What is an atom that gains and loses an electron and has an electric charge?
When an atom gains electrons, negatively charged anions are formed. When an atom loses electrons, positively charged cations are formed.
Is the following sentence true or false An atom that loses electrons has a negative charge?
False. It an Atom is losing electrons, the negative charge is being removed. The resulting charge of the Atom is positive. Think of it this way, when you add the two pieces, do you get the same thing you started with? Neutral Atom (0) - Electron (-) = Positive Atom (+) in reverse Positive Atom (+) + Electron (-) = Neutral Atom (0)
When an atom that has no charge loses two electrons it becomes a?
When an atom that has no charge loses two electrons, it becomes a positively charged ion, specifically a cation. The loss of negatively charged electrons results in an overall positive charge because the number of protons (which are positively charged) remains unchanged. For example, if a neutral atom of sodium (Na) loses two electrons, it becomes Na²⁺.
If an atom loses an electrons what will its resulting charge be?
An atom that loses one or more electrons becomes positively charged, because the number of protons (+) in the nucleus will outnumber the electrons (-).
Is an atom that loses electrons have a negative charge?
No. Electrons have a negative charge and so removing one from the atom will give it a positive charge.
What is formed when a single atom of Krypton?
This single atom remain an atom of krypton !
What happens to the charge of an atom that loses electrons?
it gets positive charge
When are ions formed?
Ions are formed when an atom gains or loses electrons. When an atom loses electrons the Ion that is formed has a positive charge.
If an atom loses electrons it is left with a positive charge?
Yes. When an atom loses at least one of its electrons, it becomes a positively-charged ion.
When an atom loses electrons its charge become negative true or false?
False. When an atom loses electrons, its charge becomes positive since electrons have negative charges. Compare it to: 0 - -1 = 1
If an atom loses 2 electrons when it forms an ion what is its ionic charge?
If an atom loses 2 electrons, it will have a positive 2 charge when it forms an ion. This is because it loses negatively charged electrons, leaving behind a positively charged atom due to an excess of protons.
What is an atom that gains and loses an electron and has an electric charge?
When an atom gains electrons, negatively charged anions are formed. When an atom loses electrons, positively charged cations are formed.
What is a neutral atom that gains or loses electrons?
A neutral atom that subsequently gains or loses one [or more] electrons is called an ion. If it gains an electron [or electrons] it will have a negative charge. If it loses an electron [or electrons] it will have a positive charge.
Is the following sentence true or false An atom that loses electrons has a negative charge?
False. It an Atom is losing electrons, the negative charge is being removed. The resulting charge of the Atom is positive. Think of it this way, when you add the two pieces, do you get the same thing you started with? Neutral Atom (0) - Electron (-) = Positive Atom (+) in reverse Positive Atom (+) + Electron (-) = Neutral Atom (0)
What is the charge and the name given to an atom that loses electrons?
when an atom loses an electron it becomes positive because it just lot a negetive part to its structure. The name given to these positively charged particles is Cation
An atom that loses electrons has a negative charge?
1) depends up on the the element basically: metals (electropositive elements) can donate nonmetals can(electro negative )elements can accpect the electrons 2)the result: if an atom losses the electron it becomes positively charged normally metals donate the electons and become + charged.
