The positive -charge in an atom is called the proton.They are held in the nucleus with the neutrons.
ion
An atom may be neutral, or it may have a positive or a negative charge. If it has a charge, it is called an ion.
Atoms carry a positive charge on the proton and a negative charge on the electron, usually these cancel out.
Ions are molecules which have gained (negative) or lost (positive) an electron. Positive Charge are called Cations. Negative Charge are called Anions.
Electrically charged atoms are called ions: positive charge - cations, negative charge - anions.
Cations.
ion
An atom may be neutral, or it may have a positive or a negative charge. If it has a charge, it is called an ion.
An atom with positive charge is cation.An atom with negative charge is anion.
Atoms with a charge are called ions.
Atoms carry a positive charge on the proton and a negative charge on the electron, usually these cancel out.
A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge.
Atoms with a positive or negative charge resulting from a loss or gain of electrons are known as ions.
Ions are molecules which have gained (negative) or lost (positive) an electron. Positive Charge are called Cations. Negative Charge are called Anions.
When an atom or group of atoms becomes electrically charged, it is referred to as an ion. If it has a positive charge (+) it is called a cation, and if it has a negative charge (-), it is called an anion.
Electrically charged atoms are called ions: positive charge - cations, negative charge - anions.
Because protons have a positive charge and neutrons have no charge, the atomic nucleus has a positive charge.
