Question

an example
F. Answer the following questions in detail.
1 An atom X that has 12 protons and 12 electrons, loses two electrons to form an
ion. What will be the charge on the ion? What will be the number of protons and
electrons in the ion?
innn electron​

Answer 1

Answer:

Number of electrons=10

Charge= +2

Number of protons=12

Answer 2

Given that x has 12 protons and 12 neutrons and x looses 2 electrons so the no of electrons becomes 12 - 2 = 10 and the no of protons remains same as no protons are lost and the charge of the ion will be+ 2
