The niobium ion can exist as both a cation and an anion, depending on its oxidation state and the chemical context. The most common form of niobium in compounds is as a cation, typically as Nb^5+ or Nb^4+. However, under certain conditions, niobium can also form anions, such as NbO_2^−. Thus, its classification depends on the specific chemical environment.
Anion is a negative ion (Cl-) and cation is a positive ion (Na+).
Cl -As this is a negatively charged ion it is a anion.
An ion can be either a cation or an anion, depending on whether it carries a positive or negative charge, respectively. Cations have a positive charge because they have lost electrons, while anions have a negative charge because they have gained electrons.
An ion with a positive charge is called a cation, and has a superscript + sign to the right of it An ion with a negative charge is called an anion, and has a superscript - sign to the right of it
A negative ion is called an anion, while a positive ion is called a cation.
Anion is a negative ion (Cl-) and cation is a positive ion (Na+).
A cation is a positive ion (as Na+). An anion is a negative ion (as Cl-).
Potassium bromide, KBr: K+ - cation, Br- - anion
Cl -As this is a negatively charged ion it is a anion.
An ion can be either a cation or an anion, depending on whether it carries a positive or negative charge, respectively. Cations have a positive charge because they have lost electrons, while anions have a negative charge because they have gained electrons.
The cation in lithium sulfide is Li+, which is the lithium ion. The anion in lithium sulfide is S2-, which is the sulfide ion.
Ions. And they can also be called anion or cation depending on their charges. An anion is a negative ion, a cation is a positive ion.
An ion with a positive charge is called a cation, and has a superscript + sign to the right of it An ion with a negative charge is called an anion, and has a superscript - sign to the right of it
A negative ion is called an anion, while a positive ion is called a cation.
The cation in NaNO3 is Na+ (sodium ion) and the anion is NO3- (nitrate ion).
An ion with a positive charge.-- opposite of an anion.
No, it is a cation (positively charged).
