Based on the information given, the image represents a negatively charged fluoride atom (Option B)
Composition of atom
An atom is composed of a centrally placed nucleus (containing protons and neutrons) and a cloud of electrons revolving round it.
How to determine the charge
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
- Proton = 9
- Neutron = 10
- Electron = 10
- Charge =?
Charge = Proton – Electron
Charge = 9 – 10
Charge = –1
Note
Element with proton number of 9 is fluorine
Thus, we can conclude that the image represents a negatively charged fluoride ion (Option B)
