It should gain 2 electrons
The sum of the number of protons minus the number of electrons.
In electrolysis, the charge of gold is taken to be +1
Since electrons are negative, they get a negative charge.
Selenium fluoride bond is polar because fluorine is more electro-negative than selenium. Hence the shared paired of electrons are more towards fluorine giving fluorine a partial negative charge and selenium a partial positive charge.
A charge which is not a positive charge is a negative charge.
A certain element forms an ion with 10 electrons and a charge of +2. Identify the element
A negative hydrogen ion.
Electrons have a negative charge. When an element had more electrons than protons, it tends to have a negative charge.
Selenium form anions.
Electrons charge is a negative
They do have a charge, it's negative
Yes, calcium has valence electrons - two, in fact (it is a divalent chemical element).
If an element is missing one electron, which is defined as having a negative charge, then the element is a positively charged ion. If an element gains an extra electron, it will have a negative charge and be a negative ion. An element with an equal number of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons is considered to be a neutral element (in other words, no charge). By the way, no charge for this answer!
only the electrons have a negative charge but they go around the nucleus
Electrons have an electrical negative charge.
The sum of the number of protons minus the number of electrons.
Pprotons have a positive charge neutrons have no charge and electrons have a negative charge. However the one with the smallest mass is electrons.
