The definition of a polyatomic ion is an ion made up of multiple atoms. Because Cl- is only one atom of chlorine it is not polyatomic.

∙ 14y agoNo silly. Polyatomic means 'more-than-one-atom' Cl1- ions have only one atom each.

∙ 10y agoYes, it is polyatomic and written as ClO3-, thus with two kinds of atoms in it: chlorine (Cl) and oxygen (O)

What is the name of the compound HClO3?
HClO3 is chloric acid. HCIO3 does not exist. There is more information at the related link.
What is name of the polyatomic ion of each compound of KNO3?
The polyatomic ion in KNO3 (potassium nitrate) is NO3- , the nitrate ion. This ion is polyatomic because it contains four atoms bonded together. The nitrate ion is derived from nitric acid, HNO3.
Is sulfate a base or an acid?
Neither. Sulfate, SO4, is a polyatomic ion. Sulfuric acid (H2SO4), however, is an acid.
What is the acid formula for chlorous acid?
HClO2 This ternary acid is formed by the polyatomic ion chrlorite, ClO2, in water.
What is the polyatomic ion oxide?
The polyatomic ion for oxide what is it?
What is the chemical formula name for HClO2?
HClO is an acid, in aqueous state, involving a polyatomic ion. You MUST recognize the polyatomic ion in the formula. There is no other way to figure out the name. If you don't recognize the polyatomic, then you're sunk without a trace. The polyatomic ion is ClO¯ and its name is hypochlorite. Any time you see the "ite" suffix, you change it to "ous" and add the word acid. The name of HClO is hypochlorous acid.

What is the polyatomic ion oxide?
The polyatomic ion for oxide what is it?
What is a charged particle made up of several non-metallic atoms joined together?
This is a polyatomic ion. Sounds like a negative ion like SO4 -- (double ionized sulfuric acid)
What is the chemical symbol for chloric acid?
Atoms have chemical symbols, but chloric acid is a compound and therefore has a chemical formula instead. Chloric acid's formula is HClO3.
A what is a group of atoms?
A polyatomic ion.
What happens to the charge of polyatomic ion phosphate when an H is added to the formula?
In even moderately strong acid conditions in aqueous solution, a polyatomic phosphate ion with a charge of -3 will add an hydrogen ion with a charge of +1 to form a polyatomic acid phosphate anion with a charge of -2. In equation form, PO4-3 + H+1 -> HPO4-2.
What is the formula for the polyatomic ion in (NH4)2s?
The polyatomic ion is the ammonium ion, NH4^+
What is the part of oxyacids?
H2 and a polyatomic ion e.g.) H2CO3 (carbonic acid) hope that helps:)
