generally negatively charged chloride ion.
but there are a few species where chlorine has positive charge like ClO3-, ClO4- etc.

Does chlorine form a positive or a negative ion?
Negative ion. Cl-
Why does Hydrogen Chloride not conduct electricity when dissolved in hexane but conducts electicity when dissolved in water?
Water is a polar molecule and hexane is non-polar. This means that water has positive charges that grab on to the negative-chlorine and water has negative charges that grab onto the positive-hydrogen. This pulls the hydrogen and chlorine apart as positive and negative ions. The these positive and negative ions can move around separately as positive and negative electrical carriers. In hexane the hydrogen and chlorine are locked together, a single neutral molecule and no charged ions. Any positive movement of the hydrogen is locked to the negative movement of the chlorine, so any movement balances out to zero charge movement and zero electrical movement.
What is chlorine in ion form?
An anion is a negatively charged ion. Chlorine, because it wants to "steal" or "borrow" an electron to achieve that "magic" inert gas electron configuration will be a negative or anion. The chlorine ion's "extra" electron will give it an overall negative charge. The anion of chlorine is written as Cl- by those who annote it in chemistry.
What charge does the chlorine ion have?
it has 7 electrons in its outer shell, which means its charge is -1.
What is the ionic charge on chlorine?
It is -1 (negative one)
Does a chlorine ion have a negative or positive charge?
Non it is neutral
Would chlorine fom a positive or a negative ion?
Chlorine will form a negative ion with a charge of -1 because it gains one electron to complete its octet.
What is the charge on the chlorine atom in the molecule hcl?
Chlorine gains an electron and becomes negative 1 charge. Hydrogen donates an electron so becomes positive 1 charge.
Does the carbon atom have the delta negative charge in the carbon-chlorine bond?
No, as t is less electronegative it has a partial positive charge.
Does chlorine has positive or negative valency?
Negative.
What particles has a negative charge and which has a positive charge?
Negative charge = electron Positive charge = positron Positive charge = proton
What is the difference between a sodium and chloride ions?
Sodium has a positive charge of 1 while Chlorine has a negative charge of 1 when it is in its ionic form.
What is the charge of anion?
A cation has a positive charge and an anion has a negative charge.
Does chlorine form positive or negative ions?
Chlorine forms a negative ion.
What charge electron charge positive or negative?
Electrons carry a negative charge to balance out the positive charge of the proton.
Does chlorine form a positive or a negative ion?
Negative ion. Cl-
What is the difference between a negative and a positive?
positive ions carry positive charge and negative ions carry negative charge
