Normally, bromine forms an anion, because it gains one electron to have a full octet, and is then negative. (Br1-) However, bromine can from a cation, as is the case when using N-bromosuccinimide (Br+ is given off).
anion. bromine is a non metal which gains an electron making it negative.
Bromine (Br) forms a anion (negative charge) because it is a halogen, and it gains 1 electron. However, when it gains that electron (Br)- its name changes to Bromide ion.
Cesium is a cation, meaning it is a positively charged ion. It forms the Cs+ cation when it loses an electron.
Chloride is an anion. It carries a negative charge due to the gain of an electron.
The cation for sodium fluoride is Na+ (sodium ion).
Br is an anion. It is called bromide and is the ion form of the element bromine.
Aluminium cation is 3+; bromide anion is Br-. The aluminium bromide is AlBr3.
anion. bromine is a non metal which gains an electron making it negative.
Bromine is a diatomic molecule and not an ion. It exists as a neutral element in its standard state.
Sulfur tribromide is a neutral molecule, not an anion or cation. It is composed of one sulfur atom and three bromine atoms held together by covalent bonds.
The cation would be C6H5NH3+ and the anion would be C6H5NH-
The cation of potassium cyanide is potassium (K+) and the anion is cyanide (CN-).

Can an ionic compound ever consist of a cation-cation or anion- anion bond? Explain.
Oxygen is neither a cation nor an anion. It is a neutral element.
CR is a cation.
