How to determine these ions:
- metal cations: find the positive charge, and make sure it is qual to the group number
- nonmetal anions: subtract 8 from the group number
- transition metals cations: the number of electrons lost

A anions and xenons b anions and cations c cations and xenons d xenons and anions Which of these are ions?
The ions are b, anions and cations. Note that xenon is not an ion, it is a noble gas.
Do anions and cations share electrons during ionic bonding?
Yes anions and cations share electrons. Anions gain electrons and cations loose electrons.
Will polonium make cations or anions?
cations
How do you tell apart cations and anions?
cations, positively charged ions, can be told from anions, negatively charged ions, bysize--cations are smaller then the average atomic mass of the element --anions are largertype--cations are made from metals --anions are non-metalsorder--cations are always listed first in a chemical equation
What is the general word for both cations and anions?
The term "ion" can be used to refer to both anions and cations.
Do the transition metals form cations or anions?
''Cations'' breh. Transition metals often form ions wihout complete octets that's why all the stable ions are all cations You can also tell that they form cations because some of the trans metals form colored compounds and give off light. Light is only given off by cations, not anions.
Given the formula MnO2 determine the charges of the cations and anions?

Are anions and cations ion?
Yes. Anions are negative ions and cations are positive ions.
Which tool would be used to find information on which cations or anions will replace other cations or anions in a chemical reaction?
A displacement table would be used to find information on which cations or anions will replace other cations or anions in a chemical reaction.
Will polonium make cations or anions?
cations
Do alkali metals generally make anions or cations?
Cations.

What is a compound that forms metal and non-metals ions when it dissolves in water?
This is typical behavior of soluble salts: metal cations (+) and nonmetal anions (-)
What conclusions can we make about the size of cations neutral atoms and anions?
Cations are smaller then neutral atoms and anions are larger.
