Question

observe the picture above and answer the questions below: if an atom loses 2 electrons, what occurs? it changes the isotope it becomes positively charged (cation +1) it becomes negatively charged (anion -2) it becomes positively charged (cation +2)

Explanation:

When an atom loses electrons, it forms a cation (positively - charged ion). Each electron has a charge of - 1. If an atom loses 2 electrons, the net charge is + 2. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons. Gaining electrons forms anions (negatively - charged ions).

Answer:

It becomes positively charged (cation +2)
