they have lost some electrons
Ions can have either a positive or negative charge. Positive ions, known as cations, have more protons than electrons, resulting in a net positive charge. Negative ions, known as anions, have more electrons than protons, giving them a net negative charge.
Ions with a positive charge are called cations. Common cations include hydrogen ions (H+), sodium ions (Na+), and calcium ions (Ca2+).
This compound is of course neutral.
Ions can have either a positive or a negative charge.
That's correct! When atoms gain or lose electrons, they become ions with an overall positive or negative charge. Positive ions are called cations, and negative ions are called anions.
On their own metals have no charge. Metal ions have a positive charge.
Hydronium Ions
positive ions carry positive charge and negative ions carry negative charge
no cations have a positive charge.
Hydrogen ions are H+Hydroxide ions are OH-neutrons are written n and have no chargeelectrons are written e- and have a negative charge.So only hydrogen ions, H+, has a positive charge.
Cations are ions with net positive charge. Anionshave net negative charge.
Ions can have either a positive or negative charge. Positive ions, known as cations, have more protons than electrons, resulting in a net positive charge. Negative ions, known as anions, have more electrons than protons, giving them a net negative charge.
Ions with a positive charge are called cations. Common cations include hydrogen ions (H+), sodium ions (Na+), and calcium ions (Ca2+).
The charge is 0 if the positive and negative charges were equal
This compound is of course neutral.
Ions can have either a positive or a negative charge.
A crystal of salt consists of electrons and positive ions. How does the net charge of the electrons compare with the net charge of the ions
