The charge of an electron is $1.6\times {10}^{-19}$ coulombs. What will be the value of charge on ${\mathrm{Na}}^{+}$ ion

Explanation:

The charge of a sodium ion (Na⁺) is positive because it has lost one electron. The charge of one electron is 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ coulombs, and when a sodium atom loses one electron, the charge on the Na⁺ ion will be equal in magnitude but positive.

Since the magnitude of the charge of a single electron is 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C, the magnitude of the charge on a Na⁺ ion will also be 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C, but it will be positive.

Final Answer

The value of the charge on the Na⁺ ion is +1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C.
