If the number of electrons in an ion is 10 and the number of protons is 9, then
what is the charge on the ion?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the charge on the ion, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the number of protons and electrons - The problem states that the ion has 10 electrons and 9 protons. ### Step 2: Understand the relationship between protons, electrons, and charge - Protons are positively charged particles, while electrons are negatively charged particles. - In a neutral atom, the number of protons equals the number of electrons, resulting in no overall charge. ...
