What ion will Phosphorous form?
Phosphorus will form the phosphide (P3-) ion.
What is the name for the phosphorus ion?
The ion of phosphorous (P) is P^3- and is referred to as phosphide.
How do you write phosphide containing ion?
P3- This is the phosphide ion, but it is not stable in water, only with 3H in PH3 (comparable with ammonia NH3) or with some metal ions (eg. Li3P, Ca3P2, AlP) it is found as pure substance. There are also other form with negatively charged phosphorous in it.
What is the chemical difference in PO43- and P?
P is the symbol for Phosphorous. Phosphorous can be found on the periodic table, which means it's an atom of an element. Only atoms of elements are shown on the periodic table, which means that every single thing on it is neutral.PO43- is Phosphate; the ion for the atom phosphorous. It contains 4 oxygen atoms and one phosphorous atom. It's charge is 3- because it is in group 5;this means it has 3 empty spaces for electrons to fill, and hence needs another 3 electrons before it can become a neutral atom again.So the main chemical difference is that one is an atom with a neutral charge, while the other is an ion with a 3- charge.
What charge would an ion have it had more electrons than protons?
it would have a net negative charge.
What would be the charge of the negative ion formed by phosphorous?
-3
What is the charge of the ion that phosphorus would form?
The phosphide ion, meaning phosphorous by itself not bound up in a poly-atomic ion, has a charge of -3 in ionic compounds.
Charge of P as an ion?
The charge of an ion depends on the number of electrons gained or lost. Since the charge of an ion is not mentioned in this case, it is typically neutral as an atom, having an equal number of protons and electrons.
What is the formula of phosphorous?
Also phosphorous is the ion (PO3)3-.
What is oxidation number of phosphorous in phosphate ion PO43?
The oxidation number of phosphorus in the phosphate ion (PO43-) is +5. This is determined by the overall charge of the ion and the known oxidation states of oxygen (-2) in compounds. In this case, there are four oxygen atoms each with a -2 charge, resulting in a total charge of -8. The phosphorus atom must have a +5 charge to balance the overall -3 charge of the ion.
What charge would chlorine have as an ion?
Chlorine typically has a charge of -1 as an ion.
What charge would an ion have if it had more electrons than protons?
If an ion has more electrons than protons, it would have a negative charge. The charge of the ion would be equal to the excess of electrons over protons.
What charge would an ion have if it has more protons than electrons?
The ion would have a positive charge equal to the difference between the number of protons and electrons. For example, if there are 10 protons and 8 electrons, the ion would be a 2+ charged ion.
How many electrons does the ion phosphorous have?
18 electrons
What ion will Phosphorous form?
Phosphorus will form the phosphide (P3-) ion.
What is the name for the phosphorus ion?
The ion of phosphorous (P) is P^3- and is referred to as phosphide.
Predict the charge that an ion of sodium would have?
I predict that an ion of sodium will have a charge of plus one.
