Best Answer

CO32- ions consist of one C and three O atoms with two extra electrons, counting for the ion charge (2-).

  • C: 6 p+ and 6 e-
  • 3*( O: 8 p+ and 8 e) = 24 p+ and 24 e-
  • Ion charge: 2 e-

Total in carbonate ions (CO32-) : 30 protons (p+) and 32 electrons (e-)

How many electrons are in CO3 2?

There are a total of 22 electrons in the CO3 2- ion. This consists of 6 electrons from carbon (C) and 8 electrons from each of the three oxygen (O) atoms, along with the additional 2 electrons to account for the overall 2- charge of the ion.

How many protons the carbonate ion have?

CO3 Carbon - 6 protons Oxygen - 8 protons 6 + (8*3) = 30 protons. Therefore carbonate ion has 30 protons.


What is the formula of the compound formed between the ions Cr 3plus and CO3 2minus?

The ionic charges MUST balance. Since Cr^(3+) does not balance with CO3^(2-) , we must adjust the ions so that the overall charges balance. Hence Cr^(3+) + Cr^(3+) gives '6+' ( 2Cr^(3+) ) Similarly CO3^(2-) + CO3^(2-) + CO3^(2-) gives '6-' ( 3CO3^(2-)). NB THe charges balance at '6+' & '6-' . Hencce we need two moles of the cation and three moles of the anion. Cr3(CO3)2 is the formula for chromium carbonate.


What kind of ions does cobalt make?

Cobalt is an element, and therefore it is not made out of ions, although it can be ionized. Like all metals, cobalt forms positive ions (by losing electrons).


What type of bond is present in sodium carbonate?

Ionic bond. Sodium carbonate is composed of sodium ions (Na+) and carbonate ions (CO3^2-), which are held together by strong electrostatic forces of attraction between the oppositely charged ions.
