What is A compound made of oppositely charged ions?

Ionic compounds contain oppositely charged ions that are arrange in a crystal lattice. The positively charged ions are called cations, while the negatively charged ions are called anions.


What is composed of charged particles?

A compound composed of charged particles is called an ionic compound. An atom that has become electrically charged is called an ion.


Is a compound formed by two positive elements?

No, two positives are repelling, not attracting. No. Compounds are formed by two or more different elements. An ionic compound is formed by the attraction between two oppositely charged ions. Molecular compounds are formed by the sharing of electrons between atoms, which is called a covalent bond.


What molecule that has oppositely charged ends is called?

Those molecules are polar.


When oppositely charged atoms stick together?

When oppositely charged atoms stick together, they are chemically bonded. Incidentally, when an atom becomes charged it is called an ion, rather than an atom, so the wording of your question is not entirely correct.
