No. A positive ion merely has more positive charges (protons) than negative charges (electrons).

What force of attraction between two objects varies with what two factors?
the factors are the negative and positive charges . i think , in only 12 and that's what i learned
What happens when positively charged objects and neutral charged objects are brought together?
if you are using magnets, they stick together.
Does coulomb's law hold for all charged objects?
the law is applicable only for STATIC CHARGES
What happens when a positive object touches a positive object?
I believe that they will push away from each other. Only opposites attract.
Can object with a static charge can attract only other charged objects?
No. It can exert a much weaker force on neutral objects, due to an induced separation of charges - that is, the charged object will cause a separation of charges in the uncharged object, thus creating an electric dipole.

Ions can have only positive charges?
false
Why are a neutral atoms positive and negative charges balanced?
For the atom to be neutral, the positive and negative charges must cancel each other out.
What happens when positively charged objects and neutral charged objects are brought together?
if you are using magnets, they stick together.
What are the only possible charges of ions?
, no fractions, positive, negative integers, and zero
How positive and negative attract?
Think about it in science. If you had any atom with only positive charges or just negative charges it is an unstable atom, therfore you can't make anything out of it. They attract like puzzle pieces. To stabalize an object you need an equal amount of positive and negative charges.

How do charged objects attract neutral objects?
Some neutral objects have a weak dipole force where electron distribution is random across the whole object, and at any one given time, one side may be slightly more positive than the other. This attraction is very weak but it happens frequently especially in solutions.
Is it true that in ionic compounds the oxidation number is the same as the charge on the ion . a neutral ionic compound can only contain ions with identical charges?
No, it is not true that a neutral ionic compound can only contain ions with identical charges. You can have, for example, a compound that consists of twice as many positive ions as negative ions, but the positive ions have only half the charge; +1 ions bonded to -2 ions. There are many different possible ratios with which different elements or radicals combine. As long as the total amount of charge adds up to zero, you still have a neutral ionic compound.
What are the two electric charges?
There are two types of charges: positive charges and negative charges. Positive charges are immobile, and are found inside the nuclei of atoms as Protons. Negative charges can be mobile, and have the source of electrons. These orbit the nuclei of atoms, and can be stripped from the atoms to be used as mobile charged through conductors, such as electricity moving through wires.
Do ionic bonds form between ionized atoms?
Yes, only if there are both ions with positive charges and ions with negative charges among the ionized atoms.
What happens when a positive object touches a positive object?
I believe that they will push away from each other. Only opposites attract.
