What are the two basic ways in which ions form from atoms?

contrasts sodium and chloride ions including how they form. Write the symbol for each ion.

An ion is an atom or group of atoms that has an electric charge. When an atom loses an electron, it loses a negative charge and becomes a positive ion. When an atom gains an electron, it gains a negative charge and becomes a negative ion. a sodium ion forms when a sodium atom loses one electron and becomes positively charged. a chloride ion forms when a chlorine atom gains one electron and becomes negatively charged.

Hope this helps,

answer: e.   sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions or accepts ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.

b.

the accuracy of the data.
