Do ions posses charges?
Yes, ions are charged molecules by definition. There are two types cations (with positive charges) and anions (with negative charges).
Are ions negatively charged?
You can have positive ions and negative ions. For example, take saltwater which dissociates into: Na+ & Cl- Typically the number positive charges and negative charges must balance.
What are polyvalent ions?
It is an ion that has multiple charges
Are all elements except noble gases ions?
No. Ions are just elements with charges.
What kinds of ions do bases produce in water?
Hydroxide (OH-) ions
Numbers and Kinds of ions in NaCL?
There are sodium and chloride ions in NaCl where they have +1 and -1 charges respectively.
What charges do the hydroxide and hydrogen ions carry?
Hydrogen Ions carry positive charges. Hydroxide Ions carry negative charges.
What kinds of charges repel?
What kinds of charges repel

What determines the ratio of ions in an ionic compound?
C.The charges on the ions

C.The charges on the ions
What differentiates molecules from ions?
Molecules are electrically neutral. Ions have electric charges.
Are ions negatively charged?
You can have positive ions and negative ions. For example, take saltwater which dissociates into: Na+ & Cl- Typically the number positive charges and negative charges must balance.
What kinds of ions when ions have 8 valence electron?
ANIONS
Ions can have only positive charges?
false
What are polyvalent ions?
It is an ion that has multiple charges
Do all ionic compounds have the same ratio of ions?
No. The ratio depends on the charges of the ions.
