All atoms (other than Noble Gases) can become ions, and all ions are charged. Cobalt gains a charge of +2 as an ion.
A negatively charged "ion".
The potassium atom would become positively charged - or a cation.
the positive and negative energy is no longer in balance causing the atom to become an ion+ or an ion-
In one atom of cobalt ion, the number of neutrons can vary based on the isotope. The most common isotope of cobalt is cobalt-59, which has 33 neutrons.
No an ion is not a type of Lithium. An ion is an atom or molecule where the total number of electrons is not equal to the total number of protons, giving it a positive or negative electrical charge. This does mean that you can have an ion OF Lithium which is positively or negatively charged.
It depends, a proton if is is positively charged ( +) electron if it is negatively charged ( - )

An atom becomes a positively charged ion when it loses one or more electrons.

A Cobalt ion can have different charges depending on the compound it is a part of. For example, in Cobalt(II) compounds, the Cobalt ion carries a 2+ charge, while in Cobalt(III) compounds, the charge is 3+.
The metallic ion in cobalt(III) bromide is Co3+ (cobalt with a +3 charge).
It becomes a negatively charged ion.
The oxidation number of a Cobalt (III) ion is +3. This means that the Cobalt atom has lost three electrons.
Electrically Charged or Negatively charged
