A negative ion is called an anion, while a positive ion is called a cation.
If it's an ion with a negative charge, it is an anion.
Na is positive ion,Cl is negative ion
When an element forms a negative ion, the name changes to IDE, fir example: chloride
when an atom loose electron it become negative ion and when it gains electron it become positive ion
Some are and some are not. One negative ion, the chloride ion, is generally harmless. Another negative ion, the cyanide ion, is highly toxic.
No, for an ionic compound, the name of the positive ion (cation) comes first followed by the name of the negative ion (anion).
if the negative ion is a single element, the end of its name changes to -ide
anion
An ion.
Another name for a negative ion is anion...while a postivie one is a cation.
When a positive ion of a base combines with a negative ion, they form an ionic compound called a salt. This reaction is known as neutralization and results in the formation of water molecules. The salt produced depends on the specific base and negative ion involved in the reaction.
False. In an ionic compound, the positive ion (typically a metal) is usually named first, followed by the negative ion (typically a nonmetal).
If it's an ion with a negative charge, it is an anion.
Na is positive ion,Cl is negative ion
The symbol Ca2+ is for the cation of calcium.
When an element forms a negative ion, the name changes to IDE, fir example: chloride
A negative charge in an atom is neutralized bylosing electrons, so there are the same name protons as there are electronsor having a cation (a positive ion) to form with the negative ion.
