5. explain the relationship between the relative sizeof an ion to its neutral atom and the
charge on the ions.

The Relative Size of Atoms and Their Ions

In fact, the negative ion can be more than twice as large as the neutral atom. The only difference between an atom and its ions is the number of electrons that surround the nucleus. Example: A neutral chlorine atom contains 17 electrons, while a Cl- ion contains 18 electrons.

the number of protons in the nucleus of a given element. has slight luster and conducts electricity at high temperatures like metal.but like a nonmetal,boron is brittle and does not conduct electricity well at low temperatures. in graphite, carbon is a soft,brittle solid.it is reflective,ductile,or malleable.
