What is the ion charge of a helium atom Is it plus 1?
Helium atom is neutral and has no charge. It becomes a positive ion with a charge of +1 when it loses an electron.
When an atom gains an electron what charge does it have?
An atom that gains three electrons will become an ion with a 3- charge.
Is an ion atom with a charge?
An ion is an atom with a positive or negative charge.
What happens when an atom loses an electron from its outer most shell?
well The electrons on that shell have nowhere to go so they jump off and become ionised
What is a positive and negative ion?
when an atom loose electron it become negative ion and when it gains electron it become positive ion
How does an ion with a charge of 2 form?
For a neutral atom to become an ion with a 2 plus charge it must LOSE TWO ELECTRONS.
How does an atom of potassium-41 become a potassium ion with a plus charge?
An atom of potassium-41 becomes a potassium ion with a plus charge by losing one electron. Potassium-41 has 19 electrons in its neutral state, but when it loses one electron, it becomes a potassium ion (K+) with a plus charge and 18 electrons.
