It depends on what ion it is.
If it is a cation, then the ion has a positive charge and an anion has a negative charge.

∙ 11y agoIons can have either a positive or negative charge. Positive ions, known as cations, have more protons than electrons, resulting in a net positive charge. Negative ions, known as anions, have more electrons than protons, giving them a net negative charge.
Ions can have either a positive or a negative charge.
That's correct! When atoms gain or lose electrons, they become ions with an overall positive or negative charge. Positive ions are called cations, and negative ions are called anions.
No electric charges may be positive or negative - electrons have a negative charge; ions have a positive charge.
This compound is of course neutral.
Positive ions are called cations, and negative ions are called anions. Cations have a net positive charge because they have lost electrons, while anions have a net negative charge because they have gained electrons.
positive ions carry positive charge and negative ions carry negative charge
Ions can have either a positive or a negative charge.
These are ions: positive (cations) and negative (anions).
The charge is 0 if the positive and negative charges were equal
Cations have a positive charge and anions have a negative charge.

Hydrogen ions are H+Hydroxide ions are OH-neutrons are written n and have no chargeelectrons are written e- and have a negative charge.So only hydrogen ions, H+, has a positive charge.
Hydroxide (OH-) ions carry a negative charge.
