Do ions have a positive or negative charge?
Ions 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.
Which ions have a positive charge?
Ions with a positive charge are called cations. Common cations include hydrogen ions (H+), sodium ions (Na+), and calcium ions (Ca2+).
What kinds of charges can ions have?
Ions can have either a positive or a negative charge.
When ions with a positive charge bond with ions with a negative charge the resulting charge is?
This compound is of course neutral.
Atoms with a positive or negative charge are called ions?
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.
Do metal ions have a positive charge?
On their own metals have no charge. Metal ions have a positive charge.
Polyatomic ions always carry a positive charge?
False. Polyatomic ions can carry either charge. For example, consider the sulphate ion - SO42- or the hydroxide ion, OH-. Negative polyatomic ions are, in fact, generally more common than positive ones.
What contain a positive charge hydronium ions hydroxide ions electrons or neutrons?
Hydronium ions contain a positive charge.
What is the difference between a negative and a positive?
positive ions carry positive charge and negative ions carry negative charge
Do ions have a a charge?
no cations have a positive charge.
What contains a positive charge hydrogen-ions hydroxide-ions electrons or neutrons?
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.
What type of ion are positive ions?
Cations are ions with net positive charge. Anionshave net negative charge.

Which ions have a positive charge?
Ions with a positive charge are called cations. Common cations include hydrogen ions (H+), sodium ions (Na+), and calcium ions (Ca2+).
What is the definition of cations anions monatomic ions and polyatomic ions?
Cations are positively charged ions formed by losing electrons. Anions are negatively charged ions formed by gaining electrons. Monatomic ions consist of a single atom with a positive or negative charge. Polyatomic ions are ions made up of two or more atoms covalently bonded together, carrying a net charge.
When ions having a positive charge form bonds with ions having a negative charge the charge on the resulting compound is what?
The charge is 0 if the positive and negative charges were equal
What kinds of charges can ions have?
Ions can have either a positive or a negative charge.
