Azirconium atom loses two electrons in forming an ion. what is the name of the ion?

Cation

Explanation:

Anion:

When an atom gain the electron anion is formed.

For example:

Cl + e⁻ → Cl⁻

Cation:

When an atom loses the electrons cations are formed.

For example:

Zr → Zr⁺² + 2e⁻

Zr⁺² is zerconium cation.

Properties of zerconium:

Zerconium is transition metal.

Its atomic number is 40.

Its atomic mass is 91.22 amu.

Its is silver-gray transition metal.

It is non-toxic however its salts are slightly toxic.

Its melting point is 1855 °C.

sry but any answer choices

plants need sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide to make food. plants use the raw materials of water, nutrients they absorb from soil, and carbon dioxide to make sugars the plant can use. energy from the sun and chlorophyll are also needed.
