Why does the chloride ion have a charge of -1

Explanation:

As we know that chloride ion is halogen. So it has seven valence electrons in its valence shell. Hence it gains one electron from others during chemical reaction to be stable. So Chloride ion have a negative charge of -1.

Hope it will help :)❤

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.
