Not necessarily no, not strictly speaking, but it can be. An Ion is a charged particle. As an example SO42- is an ion. It is not a charged atom. It is a charged species formed from 5 atoms.
A lone proton (H+ ) is a charged atom of hydrogen after it has been stripped of one electron.
Cl- is an ion and in this case yes - it is a charged atom.

Is radioactive uranium positively charged?
The alpha radiation emitted from uranium isotopes is an ionizing radiation.
Ions are charged and isotopes are not true or false?
True. Isotopes are defined by the amount of neutral neutrons which have no effect on the polarity of the atom. ions are defined by a differing amount of protons and electrons, therefore charging them.
Are isotopes charged?
no they are not charged.
Are ions isotopes atoms the same thing?
No. Isotopes are a subset of atoms, for elements which have more than one isotope. The term isotope has meaning only in comparison to another atom with the same atomic number, while the more general term atom is not so limited. Ions differ from both of the others by being electrically charged.
Charged atoms are called?
Charged atoms are called ions.
Are ions charged and isotopes not?
Ions are charged particles caused by the loss or gain of an electron moving the atom from its ground state to an excited state. an isotope is formed from the loss of a neutron.

Are isotopes charged?
no they are not charged.
What are the ions and isotopes?
1. Ions are electrically charged atoms of an element; examples are H+, Ca2+, Y3+ etc. 1. Isotopes are atoms of the same element but having different number of neutrons in the nucleus: examples are hydrogen (protium), deuterium, tritium etc.

No. Isotopes are a subset of atoms, for elements which have more than one isotope. The term isotope has meaning only in comparison to another atom with the same atomic number, while the more general term atom is not so limited. Ions differ from both of the others by being electrically charged.
Charged atoms are called?
Charged atoms are called ions.
Can radioactive isotopes be ions?
Probably not, no.
What do like charged ions do?
Like-charged ions repel each other. Opposite-charged ions attract each other.
How many isotopes are in tin?
10 isotopes 10 isotopes
How do isotopes of nitrogen differ from nitrogen ions?
Nitrogen isotopes do not have a charge.Ions have a charge.
Are atoms of the same element but with different masses are called ions?
Not ions, but isotopes.
