Question
How many electrons has a titanium atom lost if it has formed the ion $\mathrm{T}_{1}^{4+}$ ? What are the total numbers of protons and electrons in a $\mathrm{Ti}^{4+}$ ion?
Step 1
In a neutral atom, the number of protons equals the number of electrons. However, when an atom loses or gains electrons, it becomes an ion and carries a charge. Show more…
