Answer:
an ion is an element that has different numbers of protons and electrons
Explanation:
An ion is positive when it has more protons than electrons and negative when it has more electrons than ions.

Answer:
36.66%
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
- Mass of the sample: 2.875 g
Step 2: Calculate the mass of salt
The mass of the sample is equal to the sum of the masses of the components.
m(sample) = m(iron) + m(sand) + m(salt)
m(salt) = m(sample) - m(iron) - m(sand)
m(salt) = 2.875 g - 0.660 g - 1.161 g
m(salt) = 1.054 g
Step 3: Calculate the percent of salt in the sample
We will use the following expression.
%(salt) = m(salt) / m(sample) × 100%
%(salt) = 1.054 g / 2.875 g × 100% = 36.66%
Answer:
The ratio between protons to electrons is not 1:1
Explanation:
A normal atom will be neutral in charge having 1 electron for each atom. An Atom that gains or looses an electron loses that perfect ratio. It is positive is electrons are loss and negative if electrons are gained.
