There are two types of charges of ions that are the negative and the positive charges. Ionic bonding is between 2 types of elements;the metals and non-metals. Metals loose electrons while non-metals gain electrons. when they form ions they obtain charges. The metals always gain a positive charge as they loose electrons while the non-metals always gain a negative charge as they gain electrons.
a cation gains electrons and has a positive charge while a anion loses electrons and has a negative charge
Protons are positively charged, while electrons carry a negative charge, and the neutrons are electrically neutral (i.e. the neutron does not carry a positive nor negative charge).
Protons and Electrons are actually quite different. Protons have a positive electric charge, while electrons have a negative electric charge. Atoms usually have the same number of protons and electrons, which means they balance each other out giving a neutral electric charge. If there are more of either protons or electrons, the atom will have an overall charge. (Negative or Positive). Protons are also located in the nucleus with the neutrons, while electrons are located in the outer shells surrounding the nucleus.
All atoms are built with a number of positive (protons) in their nuclei and a number of negative (electrons) in shells surrounding the nucleus. The number of protons and electrons are always equal meaning that the atom is electrically neutral ( the + and - charges balance out). The atoms of different elements all have a different number of positive (and therefore a balancing number of negative) components.
Negative ions have an excess of electrons while positive ions have a deficiency of electrons.

An ion is an atom that has either gained or lost electrons. An ion has either a positive or negative charge, depending on whether it gained electrons (negative) or lost electrons (positive), while an atom is electrically neutral. When not part of a molecule, elements usually exist in an ionic form, the exception being the noble gases, or the elements on the leftmost column of the periodic table.
Yes, they have a negative charge. Protons have a positive charge and neutrons have no charge, they are neutral.
a cation gains electrons and has a positive charge while a anion loses electrons and has a negative charge
Yes! they are Electrons produce negative charge, and protons produce positive charge, while neutrons produce no charge at all.
In the context of electricity, positive refers to the presence of excess protons or an excess of electrons, while negative refers to the presence of excess electrons or a deficit of protons. In terms of characteristics or qualities, positive typically denotes something favorable, good, or beneficial, while negative denotes something unfavorable, bad, or undesirable.
Yes, electrons have a negative charge while protons have a positive charge. Opposite charges attract each other.
An anion has gained electrons and therefore has a negative charge, while a cation has lost electrons and therefore has a positive charge.
The nucleus of an atom has a positive charge.The protons in the nucleus of an atom are charged oppositely from the electrons in the cloud around them. By convention, their charge is defined as "positive" while the charge on the electrons is defined as "negative".
Electrons are very tiny compared to protons and neutrons. Electrons carry a negative charge, while protons are positive and neutrons are neutral.
A positive atom (ion) has a deficit of electrons, while a negative atom (ion) has a surplus of electrons.There ar ions. The negativ atoms are antimaterial atoms.
