10.

When ions form how do you know what the charge of the ion will be for an element?

a)

The charge will be positive and equal to the number of electrons needed to fill the outermost shell with electrons in.

b)

The charge will be negative and equal to how many electrons needed to fill the outermost shell or positive and equal to how many electrons need to be lost to empty the outermost shell.

c)

The charge will be positive and equal to how many electrons needed to fill the outermost shell or negative and equal to how many electrons need to be lost to empty the outermost shell.

d)

The charge will be negative and equal to the number of electrons needed to empty the outermost shell with electrons in.
