Do ions form electrically positive compounds?

The positive ions and negative ions attract each other. This attractive force is an ionic bond. Each positive ion balances the charge of one negative ion so overall, the compound is electrically neutral. P.S. This is from my textbook. Good luck. :)

How do ions form electrically neutral compounds-?

Ions form electrically neutral compounds by combining in such a way that the total positive charge from cations equals the total negative charge from anions. This occurs through the formation of ionic bonds where oppositely charged ions are attracted to each other and balance out their charges, resulting in a neutral compound.


How can an ionic compound made up of charged particles can be electrically neutral?

An ionic compound is electrically neutral overall because the positive charges on the cations are equal to the negative charges on the anions. This balance of charges in the compound ensures that the total charge is zero.


True or false it is impossible for the electrons in a battery to travel form the positive to negative terminal?

Does sodium form a negative ion in its ionic compounds?

No: sodium forms a positive ion in its ionic compounds.


Carbon can only form ionic compounds true or false?

False. Carbon can form both ionic and covalent compounds. Carbon typically forms covalent bonds due to its ability to share electrons with other elements.
