Best Answer

elements only have a charge when they are ionised and all ionised elements are much heavier than an electron

I think you mean which sub-atomic particle has a positive charge and is relatively heavy compared to an electron

This is the proton.

If an element is missing one electron... is it a positive ion negative ion different element or different isotope?

If an element is missing one electron, which is defined as having a negative charge, then the element is a positively charged ion. If an element gains an extra electron, it will have a negative charge and be a negative ion. An element with an equal number of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons is considered to be a neutral element (in other words, no charge). By the way, no charge for this answer!
