Silver has a positive charge because it could make things go to it it can charge very well and it does'nt have a negative charge because then it might go everywhere so Silver is made of silver coal rock type and it could charge.

Do metal ions have a positive charge?

On their own metals have no charge. Metal ions have a positive charge.


If a metal emits electrons does that metal eventually gain a positive charge of some sort?

yes. the metal gains positive charge as that loses its neutral state by the loss of electrons

metal atoms


What are the top ways of identifying metal ions?

They have a positive charge. All metals form positive ions.


Does barium has a charge of negative two?

No, barium does not have a charge of negative two. Barium is a metal element with a charge of +2.


Can you get shock from a piece of metal?

Yes, but only if its current charge is the opposite of your current charge. (ex. being you're currently negative and the piece of metal is positive.)


When one metal ion shares electrons with anthor metal ion it is called?

Metal ions do not share electrons with one another. Metal ions have a positive charge.


What will happen if a metal rod is rubbed together with silk?

When a metal rod is rubbed together with silk, electrons transfer from the metal rod to the silk due to the difference in their electron affinities. This creates a charge imbalance, with the metal rod acquiring a positive charge and the silk a negative charge. This is known as triboelectric charging.


When a metal ball is charged by induction using a negatively charged plastic rod what is the sign on the charge acquired by the ball?

There exists and answer to this problem if you state the following: After the ball has been in presence of the negatively charged rod, the metal ball is either grounded or discharged by another conductor leaving the original metal ball with a positive charge, hence the name charging by induction.


Does iron have a positive charge?

yes of course it does, iron has a +1, +2, +3, and a +4 charge


Does a metal have a negative ion or a positive ion?

It could be either. Once a metal produces an ion (an atom with electric charge) it could be positive or negative, depending on number of electrons lost or gained.


If a neutral metal comb is held near an object with a negative charge the comb will become charged by?

induction. The negative charge on the object will repel the electrons in the metal comb, causing them to move away. This will leave the comb with a positive charge.
