Cations are positive such as H+ or they are metals and hydrogen. Anions are negative such as sulphate, phosphate, carbon ion, etc. they are the non metals and metaloids.
The ion ICl4- is called tetrachloroiodate(1-) ion.
The ion formed by chlorine is the "chloride" ion
Monatomic Ion, because Mono means One (1)
An atom with a charge (either positive or negative) is called an "ion." An ion with a positive charge is called a "cation" and an ion with a negative charge is called an "anion ."
The cesium ion is called cesium ion or Cs+.
A phosphorus ion is called a phosphate ion, which has a charge of -3.
The ion ICl4- is called tetrachloroiodate(1-) ion.
The charge is -1.
The ion formed by chlorine is the "chloride" ion
Monatomic Ion, because Mono means One (1)
An atom with a charge (either positive or negative) is called an "ion." An ion with a positive charge is called a "cation" and an ion with a negative charge is called an "anion ."
An atom is called an ion if there is a charge on it - positive or negative.
A negative ion is called an anion, while a positive ion is called a cation.
An ION . Metal (M) ionises ( loses electrons) M(g) = M^(n-) + ne^(-) M^(n+) is a CATION . Non-metal (X) has electron affinity ( gains electrons) X(g) + ne^(-) = X^(n-) X^(n-) is an ANION .
An atom with a charge is called an ion. If the atom gains electrons, it becomes a negative ion (anion), while if it loses electrons, it becomes a positive ion (cation).
The cesium ion is called cesium ion or Cs+.
An iodine ion is named based on its charge. If it has a -1 charge, it is called an iodide ion. If it has a +1 charge, it is called an iodine ion.
