a. An atom that gains an electron will have a negative charge.

ANS: D g i


This answer is not the best answer. An atom that gains an electron has a negative charge; how

ever, an atom that loses an electron has a positive charge. An atom that loses an electron will
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi


have a positive charge. An atom that loses an electron has a positive charge; however, an atom
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi g


that gains an electron has a negative charge. An atom that gains an electron will have a negati

ANS: B g i


An ion pair results when an electron is removed from an atom rather than a proton. When an el
gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi gi


ectron is removed from an atom in the ionization process, an ion pair results. The atom becom

n an electron is removed from an atom rather than a neutron. A molecule occurs when two ato
