The nitrate ion is NO3- and the minus sign superscripted means it has a -1 charge. The chlorite ion is ClO2- and the minus sign superscripted means it, too, has a -1 charge.

What is the charge on the polyatomic ions nitrite and chlorite?
both are -1
Which of the following polyatomic ions have the same charge as the hydroxide ion?
Nitrate (NO3^-), because the Hydroxide ion also has a negative one charge (OH^-)
Which polyatomic ion forms a neutrak compound when combined with a group 1A monatomic ion in a 1 1 ratio?
Since Group 1A monatomic ions have a charge of 1+, only a polyatomic ion with a charge of 1- can combine to form a compound in which the monatomic ions and polyatomic ions are present in a 1 to 1 ratio. The following polyatomic ions with a charge of 1- can form a neutral compound when combined with a group of 1A monatomic ion in a 1 to 1 ratio.acetate - C2H3O2-bicarbonate (or hydrogen carbonate) - HCO3-bisulfate (or hydrogen sulfate) - HSO4-chlorate - ClO3-chlorite - ClO2-cyanate - OCN-cyanide - CN-dihydrogen phosphate - H2PO4-hydroxide - OH-nitrate - NO3-nitrite - NO2-perchlorate - ClO4-permanganate - MnO4-thiocyanate - SCN- Source: http://chemistry.about.com/od/chartstables/tp/common-polyatomic-ions.htm
What is the difference between a monatomic ion and a polyatomic ion?
A monoatomic ion has only one atom examples are chloride, Cl-, fluoride, F-, sodium Na+ A polyatomic ion has more than one, e.g sulfate SO42-, nitrate, NO3-, mercurous, Hg22+ Poly is from the Greek and means "many"
What is the number of atoms in calcium nitrate?
Calcium ions have a charge of +2 and nitrate ions (NO3) have a charge of -1. Because compounds are neutral, you need two nitrate ions to cancel out one calcium ion. Thus the formula for calcium nitrate is Ca(NO3)2. Nitrate has four atoms (one nitrogen and three oxygen). But there are two nitrate ions, so that makes eight atoms. Then you add on the one calcium atom for a total of nineatoms.
What is the charge on the polyatomic ions nitrite and chlorite?
both are -1
How are polyatomic ions usually charged?
It depends but most are negative, e.g. nitrite, sulfate, nitrate, sulfite, chlorite, phosphate, phosphite, permanganate, chromate, dichromate etc. There are however, polyatomic ions that are positively charged.
What of polyatomic ions has a single minus charge?
Nitrate Cyanide Hydroxide Acetate
Which of the following polyatomic ions have the same charge as the hydroxide ion?
Nitrate (NO3^-), because the Hydroxide ion also has a negative one charge (OH^-)
What are ions made of more than one atom?
Polyatomic ions.
Tightly-bound group of atoms that behaves as a unit and carries a net charge?
An ionized molecule. Common examples are Sulphate ions, Nitrate ions and Phosphate ions.
What kind of ion is nitrate ammonium and carbonate are?
polyatomic ions
How it is possible for a compound to have both ionic and covalent bonds ionic and covalent bonds?
Atoms can covalently bond together to produce a polyatomic ion, which can form a salt with another ion of opposite charge. Carbonate, phosphate, sulfate, nitrate, acetate, and other alkanoate salts all illustrate this phenomenon.
Which polyatomic ions has a positive charge?
ammonium
Which polyatomic ion forms a neutrak compound when combined with a group 1A monatomic ion in a 1 1 ratio?
Since Group 1A monatomic ions have a charge of 1+, only a polyatomic ion with a charge of 1- can combine to form a compound in which the monatomic ions and polyatomic ions are present in a 1 to 1 ratio.

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.
Do ions consist of more than one atom?
Yes; polyatomic ions, such as nitrate, ammonium, etc.
