What is the name given to an atom that has become charged?
It depends, a proton if is is positively charged ( +) electron if it is negatively charged ( - )
What is a negatively charged atom of chlorine called?
A negatively charged atom of chlorine is called a chloride ion.
When naming an ionic substances what name goes first?
When naming an ionic compound, the name of the cation (metal or positively charged ion) goes first, followed by the name of the anion (nonmetal or negatively charged ion).
What happens when a atom gains an electron?
When an atom gains an electron, it becomes negatively charged and forms an anion. This process is known as reduction, and it can change the chemical properties of the atom by affecting its reactivity and ability to form bonds.
What is an electrically charged atom or molecule called?
An electrically charged atom or molecule is called an ion. An ion can be either positively charged (cation) or negatively charged (anion), depending on the number of electrons it has relative to its number of protons.

Is an ion is a charged particle?
yes. negatively charged ion is called cation and where as a positively charged ion is anion.
What is anion?
An anion refers to a negatively charged ion. The negatively charged ion is usually attracted to the cathode in electrolysis.
Between what do ionic bonds form?
it's a simultanious attraction between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion it's a simultanious attraction between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion
What is a charged atom?
A charged atom is an ion. A positively charged version is a cation and a negatively charged one, an anion.
A positively charged ion will bond with?
A negative charge attracts a positive charge and repels a negative charge. OPPOSITES ATTRACT ;)
What is a negatively charged atom of chlorine called?
A negatively charged atom of chlorine is called a chloride ion.
What a ion?
An ION is an atom that has lost or gained electrons. Thereby becoming a charged species. Once an atom becomes a charged species it is NO longer an atom but an ION . e.g. Sodium atom, symbol ' Na '. has 11 protons, 12 neutrons, and 11 electrons. When it loses (ionises) an electron it becomes a sodium ion. So sodium now has 11 protons, 12 neutrons, and 10 electrons . 11 protons (11+) and 10 electrons (10-). Doing a little sum 11+ 10- = 1(+) Hence the charge on the sodium ion is'+1' . Symbolically, shown as ' Na^(+) ' . and is named a sodium CATION. Similarly Chlorine atom, symbol ' Cl '. has 17 protons, 18 neutrons, and 17 electrons. When it has electron affinity it gains an electron it becomes a chloride ion. So chlorine now has 17 protons, 18 neutrons, and 18 electrons . 17 protons (17+) and 18 electrons (18-). Doing a little sum 17+ 18- = 1(-) Hence the charge on the chloride ion is'-1' . Symbolically, shown as ' Cl^(-) ' . and is named a chloride ANION.
Is an ion positively charged?
Some are, others are negatively charged.
