Lesson: Ions POGIL

Ions

Multiple Select

What is an ion?

• an atom in which the number of protons equals the number of electrons.

• an atom in which the number of protons is not equal to the number of electrons.

• an atom with a charge

• an atom created when an atom gains or lose electrons

Multiple Select

What is a cation?

• a neutral ion

• an atom with a positive charge

• and atom with a negative charge

• an atom that has lost electrons

• an atom that has gained electrons

Multiple Select

What is a anion?

• a neutral ion

• an atom with a negative charge

• and atom with a positive charge

• an atom that has lost electrons

• an atom that has gained electrons

Why do elements gain or lose electrons?

​

Octet Rule

Electrons are lost or gained to have an electron configuration like the noble gas (pseudo-isoelectric).

​

Want a valence electrons shell of 8 electrons​

Some text here about the topic of discussion

Less than 4 valence electrons (metals) lose electrons --> cation

​

More that 4 valence electrons (nonmetals) gain electrons --> anion
