A negatively charged ion. Often a halogen. Like NaCl = Na+Cl-
KBr = K+Br-
Salts are composed of both cations (positively charged ions) and anions (negatively charged ions). In a salt compound, the positively charged cations are paired with negatively charged anions to form a neutral compound.
An atom contains positively charged protons, neutral neutrons, and negatively charged electrons. Positively charged ions in a solution also contain positive and neutral particles, as they have lost electrons to become positively charged.
All atoms contain a positively charged nucleus and negatively charged electrons.
Electrolyte is a mixture of cations and anions. This is means that it will contain positively charged and negatively charged ions.
The compound NaCl contains sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) atoms. Sodium contributes one positively charged ion (Na+) and chlorine contributes one negatively charged ion (Cl-) in the ionic compound sodium chloride (NaCl).
An ionic compound is made of oppositely charged ions. These ions are formed through the transfer of electrons between atoms, resulting in a positively charged cation and a negatively charged anion. The attraction between these oppositely charged ions holds the compound together in a crystal lattice structure.

Protons do not contain electrons. Protons are positively charged, electrons negatively charged.
Mad up of positively charge cations and negatively charged anions.
An ionic compound is made up of positively charged ions (cations) and negatively charged ions (anions) held together by electrostatic forces of attraction. These ions are typically formed from the transfer of electrons between a metal and a nonmetal element.
Electrolyte is a mixture of cations and anions. This is means that it will contain positively charged and negatively charged ions.
The compound NaCl contains sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl) atoms. Sodium contributes one positively charged ion (Na+) and chlorine contributes one negatively charged ion (Cl-) in the ionic compound sodium chloride (NaCl).
It would have fewer electrons. A cation is a positively charged ion which means that there are fewer negatively charged electrons than positively charged protons.
Atoms have equal # of protons(+) and electrons (-). Hence the atom has zero charge. If we consider just the nucleus, the charge would be positive because it only consists of protons
Nuclei contain protons (positively charged particles) and neutrons (no charge). numbers of neutrons and protons makes up mass of atom.
