A hydrogen ion, often called a proton, because that's all it is - one proton in the nucleus and no electrons. Tiny, but powerful!

The common ion charge of some elements in the periodic table is zero what does that tell you about the element?

An element with a common ion charge of zero means that it typically forms neutral atoms. This means that the number of protons in the nucleus is equal to the number of electrons surrounding the nucleus, resulting in a stable, electrically neutral element.


What is the charge of an ion having Y protons and Y electrons?

It has zero charge.


How many unpaired electrons are there in an oxide ion?

An oxide ion (O^2-) has 0 unpaired electrons. It has a full outer electron shell with 8 electrons, fulfilling the octet rule.

How many unpaired electrons does the ion contain Tl?

Which ion has no electrons?

All elements have electrons, when the amount of electrons they have changes they are called ions. They only element that forms an ion with no electrons is Hydrogen (H). To learn more about electrons and ions you should inquire about electron configuration.


How many unpaired electrons are there in a ground-state magnesium ion Mg2?

Magnesium has five unpaired electrons and is therefor paramagnetic


Why deos an ion have an electrical charge?

Because an ion has either more or less electrons than in neutral form, when the number of electrons equals the number of protons. So the net charge (total '-' and '+' is not zero)


How many valence electrons are in a hydrogen ion?

It depends on what kind of ion:If it's a cation (H+) then there is 1 proton and 0 electrons, so zero.If it's an anion (H-) then there is 1 proton and 2 electrons, so 2 (and that shell is full).
