Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The name of the given nonmetal ion is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The species that are formed by losing or gaining the electrons are known as ions. The cations are formed by losing one or more than one electron from the outer most shell of an atom. Anions are formed by gaining one or more than one electron to the outer most shell of an atom.
The naming of nonmetal ions is done by the addition of suffix –ide at the end of the element’s name.

- These questions concern the work of J. J. Thomson: From Thomson’s work, which particles do you think he would feel are most important in the formation of compounds (chemical changes) and why? Of the remaining two subatomic particles, which do you place second in importance for forming compounds and why? Come up with three models that explain Thomson’s findings and evaluate them. To be complete you should include Thomson’s findings.arrow_forwardFor the following processes that show the formation of ions, use the periodic table to indicate the number of electrons and protons present in both theionand theneutral atomfrom which the ion is made. a.CaCa2++2e b.P+3eP3 c.Br+eBr d.FeEe3++3e e.AlAl3++3e f.N+3eN3arrow_forwardThe “Chemistry in Focus” segment Sugar of Lead discusses Pb(C2H3O2)2 , which originally was known as sugar of lead. Why was it called sugar of lead? What is the systematic name for Pb(C2H3O2)2? Why is it necessary to have a system for the naming of chemical compounds?arrow_forward
