What net charge does a sodium atom have?
A sodium atom has a net charge of zero. A sodium ion has a net charge of 1+.
What type of ion are positive ions?
Cations are ions with net positive charge. Anionshave net negative charge.
Sodium forms an ion with a charge of what?
Sodium ions have a charge of 1+
What is the difference between a calcium ion and a sodium ion?
Sodium ions have a +1 charge, whereas calcium ions have a 2+ charge.
Can you explain formation of sodium chloride from sodium and chloride ions?
Sodium ions have positive charge whereas chloride ions have negative charge. They alternatively form electrostatic bonds to create the NaCl lattice which is ionic.
How many sodium ions are needed to balance the charge of one phosphate ion?
three sodium ions
Write the ions present in solution of Na3PO4?
The ions that are present in the solution of sodium phosphate is the sodium ions and the phosphate ions. The sodium ion has +3 charge while the phosphate ion has the -3 charge.
What is the net charge of the ionic compound sodium sulfide?
Sodium chloride is neutral.
What is the sodium phosphate formula?
Sodium has a single positive charge (+), whilst phosphate ions have a 3- charge. To balance out the charges, three sodium ions are needed, so the formula will be Na3PO4.
What is the charge of ions formed from the atom of sodium?
1 (+)
Formula for NA2SO4?
Sodium sulfate has the molecular formula Na2SO4. This is because sodium has a net charge of +1 and SO4 has a net charge of -2.
What is the net charge of potassium?
Usually if potassium has a charge, it is +1.
