Barium loses two electrons in a reaction, so it becomes positive or a cation.
Barium hydroxide is not a cation or an anion. It is a compound. It is made of barium ions and hydroxide ions.
when barium chloride dissociates, it produces : Ba2+ ions (cation) Cl- ions (anion)
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.

Barium Oxide is BaO.Ba+2 is Barium positive ion (anion).

Can an ionic compound ever consist of a cation-cation or anion- anion bond? Explain.
Two bromide ions can combine with one barium cation to form an ionic compound, because a barium cation has an electrical charge of +2, while a bromide anion has an electrical charge of -1.
The cation is KCN+ and the anion is KC2N-
an ion is divided into cation and an anion . cation has a positive sign whereas anion a negative.
