10
A negative plus a positive?
If the negative number is bigger, you get a negative number as an answer. If the positive number is bigger, you get a positive number as an answer.
What causes chemical compounds to be neutral?
The equal number of positive and negative electrical charges.
How can ionic compounds be neutral if they consist of positive and negative ions?
Ionic compounds are neutral because, even though they consist of positive and negative ions, the relative proportions between those ions are such that the total number of negative charges is the same as the total number of positive charges, thus summing to zero.
Why are compounds formed from ionic bonding said to be neutral compounds?
Because the number of positive charges will that form the bond will equal the number of negative charges thereby canceling each other out.
Atoms have higher number of positive charges than negative charges?
the positive number of a atom
Compounds that have the same number of positive and negative charges are said to be?
Compound having any positive or negative particle are said to be charged particle . it is not so that there should be same number of positive or negative infact these are called saturated particle .an atom carring positive particle are called cationwhile negative particle are called anionby MK
Atoms have a higher number of positive charges than negative charges?
Cations, positively charged atoms e.g. Na+. The positive charges are the protons min the nucleus and the negative charges are electrons.
What does a neutral solution have an equal number of?
Positive and negative charges.
What is the net ionic change for an ionic compound?
neutral as the number of positive charges and negative charges are equal
What charge is it if a substance has 9 positive charges and 11 negative charges?
You can easily find the charge by adding number of positive charges and number of negative charges. Just keep in mind the convention that a unit positive charge is +1 and a unit negative charge is -1.So the answer for your question is = 9 + (-11) = -2which means net charge is 2 negative charge.
What is the relationship between positive and negative electric charges?
The relationship between positive and negative electric charges is in their number of electrons. This causes them to be attracted or repel each other based on this charge.
Are ions negatively charged?
You can have positive ions and negative ions. For example, take saltwater which dissociates into: Na+ & Cl- Typically the number positive charges and negative charges must balance.
Do atoms have a higher number of positive charges or negative?
Normally atoms are neutral.
