Chemistry

Answer:

By gaining elections

Explanation:

Cations are formed when neutral atoms loss electrons and when they gain back the lost electrons the charges are neutralized.

Eg. Cu=Cu2+ + 2é

Cu2+ + 2é=Cu

A neutral atom contains the same number of electrons as protons and that means that the electric charge of the atom is neutral or otherwise known as zero. However, if a particular atom loses an electron, the atom becomes positively charged because there is more protons than electrons.
THIS IS CALLED A CATION.

Which would you expect to have higher enthalpy of fusion, N2 or I2? Explain your choice.
r-ruslan [8.4K]
The enthalpy of fusion of a substance is the energy required to change the state of a substance from solid to liquid at a constant temperature. The enthalpy of fusion for iodine, I₂, will be higher. This is because there are stronger intermolecular forces holding the iodine molecules together. The stronger intermolecular forces arise from the fact that iodine is a much larger molecule, so it has much more electrons resulting in higher Van der Waal's forces. This is also visible in the fact that at room temperature, iodine is a solid while nitrogen is a gas.<span />
