Question
Write the symbols for the ions with the following number of protons and electrons:a. 8 protons, 10 electronsb. 19 protons, 18 electronsc. 35 protons, 36 electronsd. 50 protons, 46 electrons
Step 1
The difference between the number of protons and electrons determines the charge of the ion. If there are more electrons than protons, the ion will have a negative charge. If there are fewer electrons than protons, the ion will have a positive charge. Show more…
