Its a metalloid. So don't expect cations! It forms many compounds where it has an oxidation number of +3, and lower number with +5. It forms arsenides, some of which are ionic and contain the As3- anion. Some arsenides are more covalent such as indium arsenide.
YES
an ion is divided into cation and an anion . cation has a positive sign whereas anion a negative.
anion
An arsenide ion is larger than a bromide ion, but a bromide ion is larger than an arsenic ion. Recall that arsenic can have several oxidation states. It can be a cation or an anion.
Anion is a negative ion (Cl-) and cation is a positive ion (Na+).
Boron is an element and is neither an anion or cation. If ionized it would tend to from B3+ and would be thus a cation.
is scandium a cation or an anion
Can an ionic compound ever consist of a cation-cation or anion- anion bond? Explain.
Can an ionic compound ever consist of a cation-cation or anion- anion bond? Explain.
The cation is KCN+ and the anion is KC2N-
