What is the charge of an ion that gained electrons?
If the ion is positive, then the loss of an electron will result in the ion having one greater positive charge. (A +3 ion will be +4.) If the ion is negative, then the loss of an electron will result in the ion being one less negative than it was previously. (A -4 ion wil be -3. A -1 ion will be neutral and have a zero charge.)
Is carbon a negative or positive ion?
It is a positive ion. Its charge is 4+ Edit: This answer is incorrect.
Which of the following species carries a negative charge1 β particle 2 γ rays 3 protons 4 α particle?
The proton carries a positive charge, so it does not carry a negative charge. The β particle (an electron or positron) carries a negative charge.γ rays are electromagnetic radiation and do not carry a charge. The α particle carries a positive charge.
What is the difference between a positive and negative ion?
A positive ion has lost one or more electrons, resulting in a net positive charge. A negative ion has gained one or more electrons, resulting in a net negative charge. Positive ions are attracted to negative ions and form ionic bonds to create compounds.
What is the charge of Lead II?
A cation is any element with a positive charge. Lead most commonly forms an anion, which means it has a negative charge. But any element can have any charge, but only under certain condistions
