One electron is present in the outermost shell of the atom of an element X. What would be the nature and value of charge on the ion formed if this electron is removed from the outermost shell?

Answers (1)

The ion formed by loss of one electron will have positive nature and one positive (+1) charge on the cation formed. When the single electron present in the outer most shell of the atom of an element X is removed, the value of the net charge on the ion will be equal to the amount of charge present on one electron.
