It has a positive (+) charge.
A net postive charge
If an ion has more electrons than protons, it would have a negative charge. The charge of the ion would be equal to the excess of electrons over protons.
If there are more electrons than protons, then the ion charge is negative. If there are more protons than elections, then the ion charge is positive.
The charge on an ion indicates the imbalance between the number of protons and electrons. If an ion has a positive charge, it has more protons than electrons. If it has a negative charge, it has more electrons than protons.
Yes, an anion is an ion with more electrons than protons giving it a negative charge.
An ion that has more electrons than protons has a negative charge.

Yes, an anion is an ion with more electrons than protons giving it a negative charge.
The charge on an ion is determined by the difference between the number of protons and electrons. In this case, there are more protons (75) than electrons (71), so the ion would have a positive charge. The charge on the ion would be +4, since there are 4 more protons than electrons.
An ion with a negative charge has more electrons than protons. This means that the number of electrons exceeds the number of protons in the atom, giving it a net negative charge.
An Ion. An ion can have an overall positive or negative charge. The negative charge of an electron exactly cancels the positive charge of a proton, so when an atom has an equal number of both, it carries zero charge. An ion with more protons than electrons has a positive charge, and is more specifically termed a cation. An ion that has more electrons than protons, and therefore a negative overall charge, is called an anion.
An ion that has three more protons in the nucleus than there are electrons outside the nucleus will have a charge of +3.
When an ion has more electrons than protons in it, the whole ion (charged particle) is negatively charged. The number of negative charges (electrons) exceeds the number of positive charges (protons).
