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.
positive ions carry positive charge and negative ions carry negative charge
Ions can have either a positive or a 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.
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.
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.
I think it is a positive 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.
No electric charges may be positive or negative - electrons have a negative charge; ions have a positive charge.
Cations are ions with net positive charge. Anionshave net negative charge.
This compound is of course neutral.
