Chemistry

Ilya [14]3 years ago

A negative ion or anion is an electrically charged atom or group of atoms that are formed by gaining one or more electrons. Whereas a positive ion or cation is an electrically charged atom or group of atoms that are formed by losing one or more electrons. 
The losing and gaining all occurs on the outermost shell.

What will a balloon do to a cloth if its negatively charged
masya89 [10]

Answer:

This involves negatively charged particles (electrons) jumping to positively charged objects. When you rub the balloons against the fabric they become negatively charged. They take some of the electrons from the fabric and leave them positively charged.

Explanation:

Negative charges attract to positive charges. If a balloon is not rubbed with the wool cloth, it has an equal amount of negative to positive charges, so it will attract to a rubbed balloon. When both balloons are rubbed with the wool cloth, the both receive negative charges, so they will repel each other.

What occurs when Cr^3+ ions are reduced to Cr^2+ ions?
DiKsa [7]
D:

When electrons are gained, the charge of the atom decreases.

When you are given an atom with a charge, the oxidation of that atom is the charge. So by going from a Cr^3+ (Oxidation Number = 3) to a Cr^2+ (Oxidation Number = 2), the Oxidation Number thus decreases.
