The extremely high temperature of the resulting plasma cracks the surrounding gas molecules and the free ions recombine to create new chemical compounds.
12.
If you connect fruit to an electrical circuit, instead of free electrons, free ions take over in the fruit as the moving charges.
13.
As for their role in your body, their main function is as electrolytes, free ions in solution that are used to carry electric charge.
14.
The loss of degeneracy upon the formation of an octahedral complex from a free ion is called crystal field splitting or ligand field splitting.
15.
Since free ion content determines tissue and fluid conductivity, muscle and blood will conduct the applied currents better than fat, bone or lung tissue.
16.
Most of the solute does not dissociate in a weak electrolyte whereas in a strong electrolyte a higher ratio of solute dissociates to form free ions.
17.
If a high proportion of the solute dissociates to form free ions, the electrolyte is strong; if most of the solute does not dissociate, the electrolyte is weak.
18.
For a free ion, e . g . gaseous Ni 2 + or Mo 0, the energy of the d-orbitals are equal in energy; that is, they are " degenerate ".
19.
:: Well, it won't " readily " collect electrons, because the nucleus will be at high temperature and will remain as a free ion talk ) 16 : 24, 27 May 2009 ( UTC)

The free ions recombine to create new chemical compounds ( for example, breaking atmospheric oxygen into single oxygen [ O 2 ?! 2O ], which then recombine creating ozone [ O 3 ] ).
