What else can I help you with?
What charge do metals have when they form a ion?
net negative charge
What do you call elements that have a net positive or negative charge?
Elements that have a net positive charge are called cations, while elements with a net negative charge are called anions.
What type of ion are positive ions?
Cations are ions with net positive charge. Anionshave net negative charge.
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
What charge would an ion have it had more electrons than protons?
it would have a net negative charge.
What charge would an ion have if it had more electrons than protons?
If an ion has more electrons than protons, it would have a negative charge. The charge of the ion would be equal to the excess of electrons over protons.
Do ions have a positive or negative charge?
Ions can have either a positive or negative charge. Positive ions, known as cations, have more protons than electrons, resulting in a net positive charge. Negative ions, known as anions, have more electrons than protons, giving them a net negative charge.
Is an ion an atom that has a net charge?
Yes, an ion is an atom that has gained or lost electrons, resulting in a net positive or negative charge. This charge is due to the imbalance between the number of protons and electrons in the atom.
Is a hydroxide ion positive charge?
No. The hydroxide ion has a negative charge as do all ions ending in -ide, -ite, or -ate.
How does an atom become a positive ion a nevative ion?
An atom becomes a positive ion by losing electrons, resulting in more protons than electrons. This creates a net positive charge. An atom becomes a negative ion by gaining electrons, leading to more electrons than protons. This creates a net negative charge.
What charge does an ion have if it has more protons than electrons?
A net postive charge
What is an ion with more electrons than protons?
When an ion has more electrons than protons in it, the whole ion (charged particle) is negatively charged. The number of negative charges (electrons) exceeds the number of positive charges (protons).
