because you have to
by definition, ions are charged atoms. so a neutral ion doesn't exist
Cations -- which are positive ions -- and anions, which are negative ions.
'OH^-' ions are named as 'Hydroxides'. e.g. Potassium hydroxide KOH. Calcium hydroxide 'Ca(OH)2'. NB The hydroxide ion is ALWAYS written as 'OH'. Never' 'HO'. NNB Being a negatively charged ion it correctly named as an 'ANION'.
Ionic bonding- the transfer of electrons from one atom to another. This results in ions, as the atoms which gain/lose electrons now have a charge.
All metals can be ions. Therefore the name of any metal can be the name of it's element and it's ion. Eg: iron in iron sulphide.
As the name implies, So2 is comprised of two sodium atoms.

Ions, or more specifically Cations. When an atom loses an electron it becomes positively charged and is attracted to a cathode, hence the name cation.
If i recall correctly it was an ancient greek term"atomos" meaning that it couldn't be cut at all because it was so small.
Cations -- which are positive ions -- and anions, which are negative ions.
Neutrons. If the differ in electrons they are not neutral and if they differ in protons then they are no longer the same element as the number of protons determines the name of the element.
Hydrogen ions, H+ , are important to life because they're essential to the processes of photosynthesis and aerobic respiration. The latter process is essential for all life. Chemiosmosis is the name given to the process of a flow of H+ causing some sort of energy flow.
The name is "strontium sulfite" and the formula is SrSO3.
The corrosion of metals involves a redox reaction. In an oxidation-reduction or redox reaction, metals lose electrons to oxygen to form a ionic compound from the metal ions and an ion of the oxide.

Most people that know his full name and spelled correctly would most likely also know why he was important. Top NVA general.
