Atoms are neutral on the Periodic Table. Ions consist of more or less electrons than atoms.
What else can I help you with?
What the two different type of ions are and assign their charges?
The two different types of ions are cations and anions. Cations are positively charged ions, formed when an atom loses one or more electrons. Anions are negatively charged ions, formed when an atom gains one or more electrons. This charge difference occurs due to the imbalance between the number of protons and electrons in the atoms.
Ions that are made of more than one atom are examples of what?
Ions made up of more than one atom are called polyatomic ions.
What are differences between ions and isotopes?
An ion is an atom with an electrical charge, positive or negative.An isotope of chemical element is an atom having a different number of neutrons.
Ions that are made of more then one atom?
polyatomic ions
Having the same number or protons but different number of electrons?
This relationship is for an atom and its ion.
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.
Can the number of protons always equal the number of electrons in an atom?
This is not a general valid rule; ions have a different number of electrons.
WHAT TYPE OF IONS ARE CHARGED SUBSTANCES THAT CONTAIN ONE MORE THAN ONE ATOM?
ions like sulphate ions,carbonate ions etc...are the ions which contain more than one atom.
When electrons are lost from an atom what type of ions are formed?
When electrons are lost from an atom, positively charged ions are formed. These ions are called cations.
Do monatomic ions consist of more than one atom?
no it only has one atom, but a polyatomic ions have more than one.
When are ions formed?
Ions are formed when an atom gains or loses electrons. When an atom loses electrons the Ion that is formed has a positive charge.
What are single ions called?
Ions that consist of a single atom are called monatomic ions
