Periodic Table Ions and Oxidation Numbers
Ions and Oxidation Numbers: At the conclusion of our time together, you should be able to: 1. Identify an ion as a cation, anion, monatomic or polyatomic 2. Explain the charge of an ion 3. Define an oxidation number 4. List the standard oxidation number for the periodic families
An ion is an atom, or group of atoms, that has a net positive or negative charge. Ions
The slightly overweight guy wished he was… Tin - Sn
Cation – ion with a positive charge If a neutral atom loses one or more electrons it becomes a cation. Na 11 protons 11 electrons Na + 11 protons 10 electrons
Anion – ion with a negative charge If a neutral atom gains one or more electrons it becomes an anion. Cl 17 protons 17 electrons Cl - 17 protons 18 electrons
Cation an ion with a positive charge. Anion an ion with a Negative charge. Cation an ion with a positive charge. Anion an ion with a Negative charge. A I O N -
A monatomic ion contains only one atom A polyatomic ion contains more than one atom Na +, Cl -, Ca 2+, O 2-, Al 3+, N 3- OH -, CN -, NH 4 +, NO 3 -
