yes
Magnesium will form a positive ion during ionic bonding. It will lose 2 electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration, resulting in a 2+ ion. Sulfur typically forms a negative ion by gaining 2 electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Mercury can form 3 types of ions:Mercury(I) = Hg2+2Mercury(II) = Hg+2*Most rare*Mercury(IV) = Hg+4
Hydrogen is the element that can form both positive (H+) and negative (H-) ions. When hydrogen gains an electron, it forms a negative ion, and when it loses an electron, it forms a positive ion.
K
A positive ion and a negative ion.
A positive ion is formed when an atom loses one or more then electrons.
It is equal to the charge. So Oxidation number is +1
Yes, silver can form a positive ion with a charge of +1. When silver loses an electron, it becomes a silver ion (Ag+).
When the positive ion of a base combines with the negative ion of an acid, they form a salt compound. The positive ion from the base combines with the negative ion from the acid through an ionic bond to create a neutral compound known as a salt.

No, phosphate does not form a positive ion. In fact, phosphate typically forms negatively charged ions, such as PO4^3-.
Mercury could be reacted with Nitric acid to form Mercurous nitrate. Since hydrogen is less reactive than mercury, therefore mercury would not replace hydrogen from nitric acid but the nitrate ion could oxidize mercury ion and form mercurous chloride .
Sodium forms a positive ion. When it loses one electron, it becomes a sodium cation with a +1 charge.
Chlorine can form both positive and negative ions. As an element, chlorine typically forms a negative ion (Cl^-) by gaining one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration. However, in certain compounds, chlorine can also form a positive ion (Cl^+) by losing an electron.
A positive ion and a negative ion. two oppositely charged ions
