It is rare to find a 4 plus ion of carbon because of the increasing energy required to ionize carbon. Ionization energy increases with each time.

Is calcium with a plus 1 charge a ion?
Yes - but it is rare - usually has a + 2 charge
What is oxidation number of carbon in Hydronium?
In the hydronium ion (H3O+), the oxidation number of carbon is +3.
What is a CO ion?
CO is the chemical formula of carbon monoxide; it is not an ion.
Is carbon dioxide a polyatomic ion?
Carbon monoxide is not a polyatomic ion. In fact, it isn't an ion at all! Carbon monoxide does consist of two different elements (and is therefore a bimolecular compound), but it is a neutral species.
What is symbol and charge for carbon?
Carbon's symbol is C. A carbon atom has no charge, but a carbon ion has a +2 charge.
Is calcium with a plus 1 charge a ion?
Yes - but it is rare - usually has a + 2 charge
Is C plus an ion?
If I interpret your question correctly, C is the element Carbon. When followed by a plus (in speaking) or a plus symbol it means it has a charge of one unit (elementary charge - charge on one electron). Because Carbon is defined as an atom with 6 protons, this means the Carbon in question must have 5 electrons. Thus it is an ion.
What is oxidation number of carbon in Hydronium?
In the hydronium ion (H3O+), the oxidation number of carbon is +3.
How many protons and electrons are in the following ionsC4 plus?
The ion carbon C4+ has 6 protons and 2 electrons.
Is carbon a positive or negative ion and number?
The atomic number of carbon is 6 It is a negative ion
What do you call an atom that is both an ion and an isotope?
You call it an ion of that isotope. Let's use carbon-14 for example. If a carbon-14 atom gains/loses an electron, you simply call it a "carbon-14 ion".
What is a CO ion?
CO is the chemical formula of carbon monoxide; it is not an ion.
How many protons does carbon ion have?
how many protons does the carbonate ion have?
Ion produced when carbon dioxide dissolves in plasma?
The bicarbonate ion.
Is carbon a negative or positive ion?
It is a positive ion. Its charge is 4+ Edit: This answer is incorrect.
If the formula for a compound is represented by X3Y2 and the charge on the Y ion is -3 what is the charge in the X ion plus 1 plus 2 plus 3 plus 4?
