A positive ion is a type of atom with less electrons than usual. A proton is a subatomic particle that makes up atoms.
Yes it is different. Ion contain more protons.
An ion. If electrons are in excess over proton then it is negative ion. And if less then positive ion
A hydrogen ion is often referred to as a proton due to its single positive charge.
Ammonium ion has a single positive charge. + ie NH4
A proton has the same electrical charge as a singly ionized positive ion.
Because it is a proton. A hydrogen atom is a proton and an electron; if you take the electron away to form a positive ion, all that's left is the proton.
This partice is called atomic nucleus.
A single proton (not part of a larger nucleus) is the same as a positive hydrogen ion.
A positive ion is an atom or molecule that has lost one or more electrons, resulting in a net positive electrical charge. Examples include the hydrogen ion (H+) and the sodium ion (Na+).
An Ion. An ion can have an overall positive or negative charge. The negative charge of an electron exactly cancels the positive charge of a proton, so when an atom has an equal number of both, it carries zero charge. An ion with more protons than electrons has a positive charge, and is more specifically termed a cation. An ion that has more electrons than protons, and therefore a negative overall charge, is called an anion.
proton: positive chargemolecule: no charge, neutralelectron: negative chargeion: can be either positively or negatively charged
H-1. Hydrogen has only one proton and electron; if this electron is removed a hydrogen ion is formed - effectively a proton.
