An positive ion (cation) is formed by removing electron(s) from an atom or group of atoms.
Only metals form positive ions - this ability (to lose electrons) is intrinsic to the nature of metals.
The ion formed by chlorine is the "chloride" ion
Potassium nitrate is ionic because the "nitrate" is an ion. Nitrate produces a NO3- ion (negitive ion) and the Potassium produces the K+ (positive ion). Thus the ionic designation.Enjoy
No, the atomic number remains the same when an ion is formed. The atomic number is determined by the number of protons in an atom, which does not change when an atom becomes an ion by gaining or losing electrons.
The hydronium ion which is written chemically as H3O+ will be formed when the water and the hydrogen ion combine. The ability of water to attract the hydrogen ion is what will lead to the formation of the hydronium ion.
The formula for the compound formed by the combination of barium ion (Ba^2+) and iodide ion (I^-) is BaI2, which is barium iodide. This compound is formed when one barium ion combines with two iodide ions due to their respective charges.
Its charge will then be (whatever it was before) - 1
Well im not great at science but i know that a atom which gains or loses an electron will gain a negitive/positive charge and become an ion

Potassium nitrate is ionic because the "nitrate" is an ion. Nitrate produces a NO3- ion (negitive ion) and the Potassium produces the K+ (positive ion). Thus the ionic designation.Enjoy
Hydroxonium H3O+ ion is formed.
+1 Na+ ion is formed
positive + positive = positive negitive + negitive = positive negitive + positive = negitive
Fluoride Ion
The ion formed by a calcium atom is called a calcium ion, which has a 2+ charge.
Negitive is a number that is below 0.
the result is posative
Yes
