What is the charge on an atom after it loses an electron during the formation of a bond?

I believe the charge is positive as losing an electron suggests that the atom lost a negative charge, leaving it with more positive than negative.

I haven't taken this in a few years very sorry if i'm wrong tho.

Answer:

Its charge is positive

Explanation:

A neutral atom has the same amount of proton and electrons, so the charges are cancelled. When an atom loses an electron, its charge becomes positive and its exact charge is 1+. Thus, it is formatted a cation that may interact with an anion (an atom who receives an electron) to form an ionic bond.

Bare in mind that electrons have a negative charge and protons have a positive charge.

If 27.3% of a sample of silver-112 decays in 1.52 hours, what is the half-life (in hours to 3 decimal places)?
ICE Princess25 [194]

<u>Answer:</u> The half life of the sample of silver-112 is 3.303 hours.

<u>Explanation:</u>

All radioactive decay processes undergoes first order reaction.

To calculate the rate constant for first order reaction, we use the integrated rate law equation for first order, which is:

k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log \frac{[A_o]}{[A]}

where,

k = rate constant = ?

t = time taken = 1.52 hrs

[A_o] = Initial concentration of reactant = 100 g

[A] = Concentration of reactant left after time 't' = [100 - 27.3] = 72.7 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

k=\frac{2.303}{1.52hrs}\log \frac{100}{72.7}\\\\k= 0.2098hr^{-1}

To calculate the half life period of first order reaction, we use the equation:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{k}

where,

t_{1/2} = half life period of first order reaction = ?

k = rate constant = 0.2098hr^{-1}

Putting values in above equation, we get:

t_{1/2}=\frac{0.693}{0.2098hr^{-1}}\\\\t_{1/2}=3.303hrs

Hence, the half life of the sample of silver-112 is 3.303 hours.
