ion can be produced when atom lose or gain electron
when it lose electron it's converted to cation(+) but when gained it's converted to anion(-)
A sulfur atom gains 2 electrons when it becomes a sulfide ion.
what does an atom have in common with an ion?
I don't know the answer, but your grammer is awful. I think you mean 'an atom'
An ion is a positively or negatively charged atom or molecule.
One - assuming the atom is not an ion.
An ion is an atom with a positive or negative charge.
An atom with a charge is called an ion. If the atom gains electrons, it becomes a negative ion (anion), while if it loses electrons, it becomes a positive ion (cation).
ion
The hydroxide ion is OH-. There is one proton in a hydrogen atom and eight in an oxygen atom. Therefore, there are 9 protons in a hydroxide ion.
The number of atoms in an ion depends on the type and charge of the ion. An ion is an atom that has gained or lost electrons, resulting in a positive or negative charge. Ions can consist of one or multiple atoms bonded together.
If the number of protons and neutrons are the same, its an atom, if not its an ion
An atom is called an ion if there is a charge on it - positive or negative.
