Is an ion atom with a charge?
An ion is an atom with a positive or negative charge.
Why is an iron ion attracted to sulfide ion but not a zinc ion?
Both the iron ion and the zinc ion carry positive charges while the sulfide ion carries a negative charge. Like charges repel each other, opposite charges attract each other.
Why is an iron ion attracted to a sulfide ion not to a zinc ion?
Both the iron ion and the zinc ion carry positive charges while the sulfide ion carries a negative charge. Like charges repel each other, opposite charges attract each other.
Why is an iron ion is attracted to a sulfide but not to a zinc ion?
Both the iron ion and the zinc ion carry positive charges while the sulfide ion carries a negative charge. Like charges repel each other, opposite charges attract each other.
Can ion have a positive and negative charge?
An ion is either a positive charged or a negative charged atom. Negative ions have one or more extra electrons, and positive ones have one or more electrons not there.
Does the element zinc have a positive or negative ion?
Zinc forms ions with +2 charge (Zn2+).
Can ions have positive and negative charge?
An ion's charge will be either positive or negative, but not both. The charges are mutually exclusive. A positive ion is called a cation, and a negative ion is called an anion.
Is an ion atom with a charge?
An ion is an atom with a positive or negative charge.

Can ion have a positive and negative charge?
An ion is either a positive charged or a negative charged atom. Negative ions have one or more extra electrons, and positive ones have one or more electrons not there.
What is the charge of an ion that gained electrons?
If the ion is positive, then the loss of an electron will result in the ion having one greater positive charge. (A +3 ion will be +4.) If the ion is negative, then the loss of an electron will result in the ion being one less negative than it was previously. (A -4 ion wil be -3. A -1 ion will be neutral and have a zero charge.)
What is an atom that has a positive or negative charge?
An Ion.
What is charge of an ion?
either negative or positive charge always
