How many electrons are lost or gained in a chemical reaction?

There is zero NET loss or gain of electrons


Every chemical reaction invloves a net gain or loss of?

electrons


What is the net charge of silicon if it gain three valence electrones?

Silicon typically has four valence electrons and is neutral with no net charge. If it gains three additional valence electrons, it will have a total of seven valence electrons. This would result in a net charge of -3, as gaining electrons gives the atom a negative charge.


Why some atoms gain or lose electrons to form ions.?

if an atom gains or loses electrons, it is no longer has an equal number of electrons and protons. Because the charges do not cancel completely, the atom has a net electric charge.


What is the net charge of copper atom if it gain two electrons?

Cu(2-) does not exist, because Cu does not gain electrons at all being a metal. When it gives off two electrons Cu(2+) ions are formed.


The type of ion that forms when atoms gain electrons?

Atoms that gain electrons are called anions, and atoms that loose electrons are called cations


What electric charge is the characteristic for an ion of 0?

O that is oxygen is a non metal and a non metal has a characteristic of gaining electrons so when they gain electrons the also gain a net charge in negative as no. of protons become less than the no. of electrons. now oxygen has atomic no. 8 and valency of 2 so it requires 2 electrons to complete an octet i.e. 8 electrons in the outermost shell and to get a negative charge. since it will gain 2 electrons so it will have a net charge -2. The oxidation number of oxygen is -2, except in a few cases, including superoxides (-1/2), peroxides (-1), and oxygen fluorides (+1, +2).


How does sulfide ion obtain its charge?

The sulfide ion (S²⁻) obtains its charge by gaining two electrons. Sulfur, which has six valence electrons, tends to gain two additional electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration similar to that of the noble gas argon. This gain of electrons results in a net negative charge of -2, leading to the formation of the sulfide ion.


What does NET mean in physics?

What is a total force in physics?

Who am I if My 3- ion would have 8 electrons?

If your 3- ion has 8 electrons, you would be an oxygen ion (O^3-). In its neutral state, oxygen has 8 electrons, but as a 3- ion, it has gained an additional 3 electrons, giving you a total of 8 electrons. This means you have a net charge of -3, indicating a strong tendency to gain electrons.
