Question:

what kind of ionic charge is this?

aluminum+oxygen aluminum has 3 electrons to give but oxygen only needs 2, so where does that extra electron go and what kind of charge is it.explain

Answer:

Sure I can read a labelBut I don't want wool or acrylicI want a soft cotton with a twistIs there any brand of cotton yarn comparable to the softness and thickness of Lion Brand Nature's Choice Organic Cotton?
For making an article of clothing you would want something that had the same gauge as what the pattern suggestsSo many stitches per inch, so many rows, etc, with the needle size it suggestsThen you can use whatever yarn is approximate to thatYou can go up or down in needle size but if you are a novice it's better to have less to fuss with.

When an aluminum atom becomes an ion, it loses three electronsWhen oxygen becomes an ion, each atom gains two electronsTherefore in order for there to be no electrons left over, two aluminum atoms react at the same time as three oxygens(Actually, in the ratio of would be better wording.) All of the above is indicated in the correct formula for aluminum oxide which is Al2O3 (both numbers should be subscripts).
