Do elements in the d block form ions of only one charge?

No, elements in the d block can form multiple ions with different charges. This is because they can lose different numbers of electrons from their outer d orbitals to achieve a stable electron configuration.


What is formed when elements of matter are chemically combined atoms compounds mixtures ions?

When elements of matter are chemically combined, they form compounds. Compounds are substances made up of two or more different types of atoms that are bonded together in a fixed ratio. In contrast, mixtures consist of two or more substances that are physically combined but not chemically bonded. Ions are charged particles that can form when atoms gain or lose electrons, but they do not represent a combination of different elements.


Are all elements except noble gases ions?

No, not all elements except noble gases form ions. Noble gases are considered inert because they have a complete outer electron shell, making them stable and less likely to form ions. Other elements may gain or lose electrons to form ions.


How are elements that form positive ions grouped in the periodic table relative to elements that form negative ions?

The lower the the Atomic Number, the higher the Ionic Energy.


What type of elements form positive ions and what are positive ions called?

The elements that lose electrons and form positive ions are called metals. They will lose the electrons from their highest levels of energy to gain a more positive charge and form positive ions.

YES


Why do elements form bond?

Elements form bonds because of the attractions between atoms or ions. There are several types of bonds such as ionic, covalent and metallic bonds.


Must atoms of two different elements form ions of the same charge to form a compound element?

no


What elements does not form monoatomic ions?

Noble gases doesn't form ions.


What element combined with chloride ion would form an ionic compound?

Chloride ions would form elements with ions of metallic elements. For example, with sodium ions, chloride ions form sodium chloride.

lose 2 electrons and form ions with a 2+ charge.


What type of ion do the elements found in the valleys of the graph form?

We haven't seen your graph. However, it is easy to say what kinds of ions elements form. Metals form positive ions and nonmetals form negative ions.
