Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Identify the number of protons and electrons in the ion. Protons carry a positive charge (+1 each), and electrons carry a negative charge (-1 each).
Calculate the total positive charge by multiplying the number of protons by +1: \(11 \times (+1) = +11\).
Calculate the total negative charge by multiplying the number of electrons by -1: \(10 \times (-1) = -10\).
Find the net charge of the ion by adding the total positive and total negative charges: \(+11 + (-10) = +1\).
Interpret the result: since the net charge is +1, the ion has a net positive charge of +1.
