Polyatomic ions.
Ions made up of more than one atom are called polyatomic ions.
Think about the question and each of the answers, particularly d) Polyatomic atoms. Even if I had no knowledge of chemistry, (d) would be the obvious answer. The question wants ions with MORE THAN ONE ATOM. Poly=Many/multiple, so 'polyatomic' quite literally means 'more than one atom'.
more electrons than an atom in the ground state
When electrons move from one atom to another, they change the charge of the atoms. If you remove one electron that atom becomes 1+ charged because a negative was taken away, making it more positive than negative. The atom that recieves an electron becomes 1- charged because you added a negative, making the atom more negative than positive.
having more protons than neutrons
Ions made up of more than one atom are called polyatomic ions.
Polyatomic ions.
no it only has one atom, but a polyatomic ions have more than one.
"Polyatomic ions", like carbonate (CO32-) and ammonium (NH4+)
No. A monatomic ions consists of just one atom.A polyatomic ion is made up of more than one.hint:mono=1poly= more than one.
ions like sulphate ions,carbonate ions etc...are the ions which contain more than one atom.

These are called polyatomic ions.
molecular ions
Ions have more or less electrons than a neutral atom.
Molecules, compounds, and ions are always made up of more than one atom. These particles consist of two or more atoms bonded together through chemical interactions.
No They are ions made up of more than one atom and acts as a single unit.
