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

Chemistry
1 answer:
NARA [144]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

One positive charge

Explanation:

In a neutral atom, the number of positive and negative particles are equal. This leaves the atom with a net charge of zero, 0.

When the number of protons in an atom is greater than the number of electrons, the atom becomes positively charged. When an atom loses an electron when a bond wants to form, it has a net positive charge.

The number of electrons lost or gained determines the charge.

Why can’t there be a temperature lower than absolute zero
Firdavs [7]
Atoms cannot physically get more compact (temperature lowering increases the space between atoms) At absolute zero, the atoms are as physically close together as allowed by the physical laws governing it.

Explanation:

Matter undergoes two types of changes: physical changes and chemical changes.

A physical change is one that affects only the physical properties of a substance such as colour, size, shape, etc., and in which no new substances are formed. Physical changes are easily reversible.

Chemical changes are changes which affect the chemical characteristics and properties of a substance such as reactivity, acidity, basicity, etc., resulting in the formation of new substances.

The following changes below are categorized as either physical or chemical changes based on which of the properties of the substance is affected and whether new substances result or not.
