It is an electron.
Formation of cation and anion depends upon loosing and gaining of electrons respectively.
Iodide ion or I- ion
The ion with an atomic number of 16, mass 33 and 18 electrons is the sulfide ion S2-
An ion is a particle that has an unequal number of protons and electrons, resulting in a net positive or negative charge.
No, it becomes a new element.When a particle loses an electron it becomes an ion.
ion
This partice is called atomic nucleus.
anion ... a single atom transforms into a positive ion called a monatomic anion, or sometimes just a monatomic ion, but that is a general term for pos or neg ions.
Ion.
When considering the atomic number, the only information that we need is the number of protons. To know if the particle is an ion, has more or less electrons, how many neutrons, etc - will not change the atomic number. The atomic number is the same as the number of protons, so in this case, the atomic number of an atom (or ion, doesn't matter) with 5 protons is 5.
C4+ would contain 24 protons and 24 neutrons but only 23 electrons.
No, the atomic number remains the same when an ion is formed. The atomic number is determined by the number of protons in an atom, which does not change when an atom becomes an ion by gaining or losing electrons.
An ion has a net electrical charge; a nonionic particle that is at least as large as an atom does not.
YES :)
The representative particle of a sodium ion is Na⁺, which has lost one electron to become positively charged.
An atom that carries an electric charge is called an ion, not a neutron. Neutrons are subatomic particles found in the nucleus of atoms that have no charge. Ions are formed when atoms gain or lose electrons, resulting in a net positive or negative charge.
We now know there are dozens of different sub atomic particles and they are still being discovered in large particle accelerators. Some decay into other particles in an incredibly short period of time. Even neutrons can can change to a proton. The only really stable particles, in the absence of anti-matter, are the proton and the electron
Ion of hydrogen.
