Answer:
The element iodine forms an anion with the charge -1. The symbol for this ion is I⁻¹, and the name is iodide. The number of electrons in this ion is 7.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, we have to consider iodine has the capacity to accept the electrons lost by other elements such as metals or hydrogen by becoming negatively charged. Such phenomena makes iodine to form an anion (negatively charged) with the charge -1, since it only needs one electron to attain the octet. Moreover, the symbol of such ion is I⁻¹ and its name is iodide. By cause of the aforementioned, the number of electrons it has is 7 since at its outer shell seven electrons are found (see electron configuration Kr,5s²,5p⁵).
Best regards.
The correct answer for this will be
atomic
mass
Answer:
The electron is subatomic particle that revolve around outside the nucleus and has negligible mass. It has a negative charge.
relative charge = -1
Relative mass = 1.1836
It was discovered by j. j. Thomson in 1897 during the study of cathode ray properties.
He constructed the glass tube and create vacuum in it. He applied electric current between electrodes. He noticed that a ray of particles coming from cathode to wards positively charged anode. This ray was cathode ray.
Properties of cathode ray:
The ray is travel in straight line.
The cathode ray is independent of composition of cathode.
When electric field is applied cathode ray is deflected towards the positively charged plate.
Hence it was consist of negatively charged particles.
While neutron and proton are present inside the nucleus. Proton has positive charge while neutron is electrically neutral. Proton is discovered by Rutherford while neutron is discovered by James Chadwick in 1932.
Relative mass of proton= 1
Relative mass of neutron = 1
Relative mass of proton = +1
Relative charge of neutron = 0
The number of electron or number of protons are called atomic number while mass number of an atom is sum of protons and neutrons. The umber of protons and electrons are always equal to make the atom electrically neutral.
