It is a positive ion. Its' charge is 3+.
An atom with a charge (either positive or negative) is called an "ion." An ion with a positive charge is called a "cation" and an ion with a negative charge is called an "anion ."
By becoming an oxide ion, O=
Neither. It is a neutral compound.
Negative charge: electrons Positive charge: protons
No. On its own oxygen is neutral. Its ion, the oxide ion, has a negative charge
It depends on what ion it is. If it is a cation, then the ion has a positive charge and an anion has a negative charge.
An ion's charge will be either positive or negative, but not both. The charges are mutually exclusive. A positive ion is called a cation, and a negative ion is called an anion.
An ion is an atom with a positive or negative charge.

Zinc ion (cation) is positive.
By becoming an oxide ion, O=
Ca2+ and O2-
An ion is either a positive charged or a negative charged atom. Negative ions have one or more extra electrons, and positive ones have one or more electrons not there.
A negative charge attracts a positive charge and repels a negative charge. OPPOSITES ATTRACT ;)
An Ion.
