Silver dichromate is a chemical compound with the formula Ag2Cr2O7. It is insoluble in water and decomposes when treated with hot water. Its anion has a charge of -2.
Differences between cation and anion
The first difference is that anions have a negative electrical charge while cations have a positive electrical charge. Secondly, during electrolysis, the anions move to the anode which is referred to as the anode. However, the cations migrate to the cathode called the cathode.
The cation would be C6H5NH3+ and the anion would be C6H5NH-
The cation of potassium cyanide is potassium (K+) and the anion is cyanide (CN-).
Can an ionic compound ever consist of a cation-cation or anion- anion bond? Explain.
Oxygen is neither a cation nor an anion. It is a neutral element.
CR is a cation.
Yes, for binary ionic compounds, the cation (metal) name comes first followed by the anion (nonmetal) name. The anion name typically has an "-ide" ending. For example, sodium chloride is composed of the cation sodium and the anion chloride.
