What is a group of atoms with with a positive or negative charge?

A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge.


How do ions become positive?

Positive ions form when an atom or group of atoms loses one or more electrons.


What types of atoms form positive ions?

atoms that belong to a metal element....because metals always loose electrons and gain a positive charge..!


What is it when a group of atoms have an electric charge?

Ions are formed when atoms have charges. Cations are species with positive charge. Anions are species with negative charge.

Positive ions


What are the polyatomic ions?

polyatomic ions are those ions which carry more than one atom,we can say that a group of atoms having single charge( which may be positive or negative) are polyatomic ions.


What have an electric charge of 1?

Atoms with charge are called ions. These ions have either gained or lost valence electrons to gain a net positive or net negative charge. Ions with a positive electrical charge of positive 1 (+1) are metals in the Alkali Metals Group and Hydrogen. Ions with a negative electrical charge of 1 (-1) are elements in the Halogen Group.


Atoms with a positive or negative charge are called ions?

That's correct! When atoms gain or lose electrons, they become ions with an overall positive or negative charge. Positive ions are called cations, and negative ions are called anions.


Can atoms have positive or negative charge?

Yes, if they are ions
