Loses two electrons.
An ion is an atom with a positive or negative charge.
An atom with a charge is called an ion. If the atom gains electrons, it becomes a negative ion (anion), while if it loses electrons, it becomes a positive ion (cation).
ion
Removal of an electron from an atom leaves a positively charged ion.
ion can be produced when atom lose or gain electron when it lose electron it's converted to cation(+) but when gained it's converted to anion(-)
When a nitrogen atom gains an electron, it becomes a nitride ion (N^{3-}) with a (3-) charge.
Loses two electrons.
Assuming it is just a particle of silver with no other interactions, it would just be an atom. It could, in other cases, be an ion instead, however: an ion is nothing more than an atom or molecule that is charged (either positively by losing an electron or negatively by gaining an extra electron.) If the atom/molecule has an equal number of protons and electrons (as it would generally be considered in an ideal textbook situation, assuming no chemical interactions), the net charge is neutral, so it would not be considered an ion. Bottom line: + charge or - charge is a silver ion, neutral charge is just a plain old silver atom/molecule.
This does not happen. Carbon forms covalent bonds with oxygen, not ionic bonds.
Yes, it is converted from an element to form a compound, since it will only from an ion by finding some other species that will accept the donor electron.
Silver nitrate is a chemical compound formed by the reaction between silver and nitrate ions. The bond between silver and nitrate is ionic, with the silver atom donating its electron to the nitrate ion, resulting in the formation of a positively charged silver ion and a negatively charged nitrate ion. This ionic bond holds the compound together.
The electronic configuration of silver is [Kr]4d105s1. If it loses 1 electron then it will have completely filled d orbitals as its valence orbitals and is stable. It will never attain the electronic configuration of noble gas.
the radius increases when atom is converted to negatively charged anion.
A silver halide--a compound consisting of a silver atom bonded to either an iodine atom or a chlorine atom.
what does an atom have in common with an ion?
An ion is a positively or negatively charged atom or molecule.
