What is the probable ion formed from Br?
Br-. Bromine will grab an electron to make itself more stable, which makes it a negative ion.
What is the most probable ion formed for Br?
neg 1 bromide ion
Is methane a polyatomic ion?
No, Methane (CH4) is not a polyatomic ion. It doesn't have a charge, therefore it can't be an ion. It's considered a hydrocarbon.
Why is the charge of boron b plus?
This just means it has a charge of 1+. The Boron ion can only have a charge of 1+.
What type of charge do the roman numerals in a cation indicate?
Cation = negative ion
What charge does bromine form in compounds?
The charge that bromine forms in compounds is -1. This is because it is a type of halogen that takes electrons to fill its outer shell.
What is the charge on the most stable ion of each of the following elements F Br?
F^-1 and Br^-1
Would the Br ion be bigger than the Se ion?
No. The Se ion will be larger than the Br ion. The more negative the anion's charge, the larger the radius (more electrons = stronger repulsion between the electrons; so, more distance between them). Se would become "Se2-" as an anion, and Br would become "Br1-". Because Se's "2-" anion charge is more negative than Br's "1-" anion charge, and because Se would have more relative electrons to protons than Br, there is more repulsion between electrons, and distance, within the Se ion. So, the Se ion has a larger radius. Hope it helps.
What charge does a bromide ion have?
Br-, like the other halogens F-, Cl-, Br-, I-. They would obtain one electron to have noble gas electron configuration. Therefore, one negative charge.
What is the symbol of bromine ion?
The bromine ion is referred to as bromide, and it is Br^-
What -2 charge ion has same electron configuration as krypton?
Strontium (Sr) Sr2+ ion and krypton have he same electronic configuration
What is the oxidation number for Br in BrO3-?
If Br had an oxidation number of +7, the net charge on the ion would be +1, and not -1. Thus, the oxidation number for Br in BrO3- should be 5+.
What is the ion symbol for bromine?
The ion bromide is Br-.
How do you draw Lewis dot diagram of Br with a negative charge?
Br- ion will have 8 valence electrons. So to write the Lewis structure, write the symbol Br, with 8 dots around it. Each dot will correspond to one electron.
Is Br- referred to as an anion?
Yes, the ion bromide (Br-) is an anion.
Does bromine form a cation or an anion?
Bromine (Br) forms a anion (negative charge) because it is a halogen, and it gains 1 electron. However, when it gains that electron (Br)- its name changes to Bromide ion.
What is the charge of a bromine ion?
A bromine ion has a -1 charge. That's because it is a halogen, and it is an electron "borrower" which wants to steal an electron to "complete" its outer electron shell. When it snags an electron to fulfill that tendancy of atoms to attain inert gas electron configuration, it ends up with that "extra" electron and a -1 charge. This is typical of all halogens, those elements that make up the Group 17 elements.
