What cation does barium metal form?
Barium metal forms the Ba²⁺ cation.
Which metal is lightest in transition element?
Lithium is the lightest transition metal.
Which is the transition metal with the smallest atomic mass in group 8?
Scandium is the smallest d-block element which in the past also made it the smallest transition metal. However, using the accepted modern definition of a transition metal: 'a transition metal is one which forms one or more stable ions which have incompletely filled d orbitals' scandium would not count as a transition metal, as it always forms 3+ ions with no d-electrons. Using this definition, the smallest transition metal would therefore be titanium.
Is a cation isoelectric with the element before or after it?
No necessarily. Although the alkali metal cations are, most other cation-forming elements (metals) are not as many of them lose more than one electron. It is even more complicate for the transition metals as they can move electrons between their s and d orbitals.
Is Sc a transition metal?
No, Sc (Scandium) is not considered a transition metal. It is classified as a rare earth element.
What is the element name of the cation in the compound CuF2?
The cation is the metal "Cu", otherwise known as the element Copper.
What type of ionic compound does a single element cation and single anion element anion?
A single element cation and single element anion form a binary ionic compound, where one element is a metal and the other is a nonmetal. The metal forms the cation by losing electrons, while the nonmetal forms the anion by gaining electrons. Examples include NaCl (sodium chloride) and KBr (potassium bromide).
Is a strontium a cation?
Strontium can be a neutral atom or a cation.
Is iodine a cation?
No, iodine is not a cation. Iodine is a non-metal halogen element that typically forms an anion in chemical reactions by gaining an electron to achieve a stable electron configuration.
What cation does barium metal form?
Barium metal forms the Ba²⁺ cation.
Does sodium contain both a transition metal ion and a halide ion?
No, sodium does not contain a transition metal ion. It is a Group 1 element with a +1 oxidation state. Sodium can form a halide ion, such as NaCl (sodium chloride) where the sodium loses an electron to become a positively charged cation.
Which of the following elements is not a transition metal element Manganese Chromium Tin or Osmium?
Tin is not a transition metal element. Manganese, Chromium, and Osmium are all transition metals.
Which metal is lightest in transition element?
Lithium is the lightest transition metal.
Is molybdenum a cation or an anion?
Manganese, like many transition metal elements, is a cation (Mn^2+)
Is Ag a metal or nonmetal element?
Yes it is a transition element. It is present in 5d transition series.

Is HgBr ionic or covalent?
HgBr is an ionic compound. Mercury (Hg) is a metal element that forms cations, while bromine (Br) is a non-metal element that forms anions. In an ionic compound like HgBr, the metal cation is positively charged and the non-metal anion is negatively charged, leading to electrostatic attraction between them.
