A sulfide ion (S2-) has a charge of -2 because sulfur typically forms two covalent bonds with other elements in ionic compounds. Sulfur is in Group 16 of the Periodic Table, also known as the oxygen family, which means it has six valence electrons. By gaining two electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration, sulfur fills its valence shell and attains a full octet, resulting in a -2 charge.
It is called the Sulphide ion
BeSO4 Sulfate is a polyatomic ion = SO4 and this has a charge of -2 and Beryllium usually has a charge of +2
The ion with the formula SO4 and a -2 charge is called sulfate ion. It consists of one sulfur atom and four oxygen atoms with a total charge of -2.
When Te forms an ion in a compound, it typically has a charge of -2.
Barium forms a +2 charge, along with all other group 2 metals.
-2 is the most common charge (sulphide ion).
The charge that sulphide has will depend in its state. Sulphide in itself does not have any charge but sulphide ion has a negative charge.
The barium ion has the formula Ba2+, and the Sulphide ion has the formula S2-. The formula for the formation of Barium Sulphide is: Ba + S --> BaSThe formula for Barium Sulphide is BaS
The ion charge on sulfate is 2-. This means that the sulfate ion carries a charge of -2.
The charge is minus 2.
Sulfur monoxide is a gaseous compound, NOT an ion; hence it has NO charge.
The charge of an NO ion is -1. This is because nitrogen typically has a charge of +5 and oxygen typically has a charge of -2, resulting in a charge of -1 for the NO ion.
Iron can acquire a charge of +2 or +3 as an ion. The +2 charge is more common and is known as ferrous ion, while the +3 charge is less common and is known as ferric ion.
SO4 -----> 2- (negative 2)
Sulfur ion with a -2 charge is called sulfide ion (S^2-).
The charge of the molybdenum ion is +2.
Sulfur (S) tends to form covalent bonds with other nonmetals. However, when bound to a metal sulfur will gain two electrons to form the sulfide ion (S2-).
