An ion is an atom with a positive or negative charge.
An atom is called an ion if there is a charge on it - positive or negative.
A ion is an electrically charged atom, positive or negative.
it will become a negative ion due to the negative charge of electron
when an atom loose electron it become negative ion and when it gains electron it become positive ion
It will be a negative ion, or in other words, a anion.
No.... an atom is not an ion.... ions have a positive or negative charge... Atoms are neutral
A negative ion has gained one or more electrons to become negatively charged, while its parent atom is neutral with an equal number of protons and electrons. This means the negative ion has more electrons than its parent atom.
It's an ion. Cation for positive and anion for a negative atom
positive ion forms when any electron removes from an atom and an anion called negative ion forms when an atom accepts an additional electron
The hydroxyl ion is not a positive ion but rather a negative ion. The hydroxyl ion or anion is also known as hydroxide.
