Difference between :
Monovalent Electropositive ions & Monovalent Electro - -negetive ions .
Answers
Explanation:
Formation of Electropositive ions
Monovalent
Potassium atom loses one electron from its outermost (valence) shell to form univalent or monovalent positive ion. Here, univalent or monovalent means having the valency one.
K - e- → K1+
Unstable Stable
potassium potassium
atom ion
Divalent
Magnesium atom loses two electrons from its outermost (valence) shell to form divalent positive ion. Here, divalent means having the valency two.
Mg - 2 e- → Mg2+
Unstable Stable
magnesium magnesium
atom ion
Trivalent
Aluminium atom loses three electrons from its outermost (valence) shell to form trivalent positive ion. Here, trivalent means having the valency three.
Al - 3 e- → Al3+
Unstable Stable
aluminium aluminium
atom ion

Answer:
electropositive = the ability of as atom to loose and double it's election
electronic negative = the frequency to gain an election.
