Metals typically form positive ions. The alkali metals and alkali earth metals form positive ions in ionic obnding whilst the transition metals form cations in a lattice of delocalised electrons.

Which elements will form positive ions?
Metals tend to form positive ions.
What type of ions do the elements of group 1 form?
Group 1 elements are the alkali metals, which form ions wih a 1+ charge.
What type of ion do the elements found in the valleys of the graph form?
We haven't seen your graph. However, it is easy to say what kinds of ions elements form. Metals form positive ions and nonmetals form negative ions.
What type of ions do elements on the right side of the periodic table form?
cations = positively charged ions
When a group 2A elements form ions they?
When Group 2A elements form ions they lose the electrons in their outer shell. In doing so they form positive ions known as cations.
Which elements will form positive ions?
Metals tend to form positive ions.
What are elements lose electrons and form positive ions named?
The elements that lose electrons and form positive ions are called metals. They will lose the electrons from their highest levels of energy to gain a more positive charge and form positive ions.
What elements can form a positive ion?
All elements can and many often do form positive ions.
What type of elements form positive ions and what are positive ions called?
The elements that lose electrons and form positive ions are called metals. They will lose the electrons from their highest levels of energy to gain a more positive charge and form positive ions.
Do non metal elements only form positive ions?
Metals tend to form positive ions also known as cations.
What type of ions do the elements of group 1 form?
Group 1 elements are the alkali metals, which form ions wih a 1+ charge.
What types of ions do different elements form?
Ions are cations (positive) or anions (negative).
How are elements that form positive ions grouped in the periodic table relative to the elements that form negatives ions?
The lower the the Atomic Number, the higher the Ionic Energy.
How are elements that form positive ions grouped in the periodic table relative to elements that form negative ions?

What has positive ions and can form ionic compounds?
Metals form positive ions and form ionic compounds with negative ions.
