It becomes a chloride ion with a 1- charge.
When chlorine gains an electron , it forms an anion. It is represented as Cl-
A negatively charged "ion".
when chlorine gains an electron, it now now contains a full octet. this means that the chlorine element is now chemically perfect and now is stable , but not as stable as one of the Noble Gases
If a chlorine atom gains a valence electron, it becomes a negatively charged ion known as a chloride ion (Cl⁻). Conversely, if it were to lose a valence electron, which is less common for chlorine, it would become a positively charged ion, but this scenario is unlikely due to its high electronegativity. Thus, the most common ion formed by chlorine is Cl⁻ when it gains an electron.
Chlorine gains 1 electron to achieve the noble gas electron configuration of argon.
It becomes a negative ion.
It becomes a negative ion.
It becomes a negative ion.
It becomes an anion, Cl-
chlorine is a group seven element with outmost energy level lacking only one electron, thus is not stable. when it gains this electron, it gets an octet electron structure(8 e in the vallency shell) this makes it very stable in the enviroment; the reason why chlorine molecule exists due to its stable atoms but chlorine atom does not exist in nature
positively
When chlorine gains one electron, it becomes a chloride ion with a negative charge.
Chlorine readily gains an electron to form a chloride ion with a negative charge of -1.
When a chlorine atom gains one electron, it forms a chloride ion with a single negative charge.
in sodium chloride chlorine gains an electron and the bond formed between then is ionic.
When a chlorine atom gains an electron in its outer energy shell, it becomes a negatively charged ion called a chloride ion. This extra electron fills its outer shell, giving it a stable electron configuration similar to that of a noble gas. Chloride ions commonly combine with sodium ions to form salt, sodium chloride.
Cl- This is the symbol of a chlorine ion that gains one electron
