There is no single ion that leads to the endings -ate or -ide, though ions with such ions can be assumed to be negative ions (anions). A few examples are given below.

Monatomic anions have names ending in -ide:

Hydride: H-

Nitride: N3-

Oxide: O2-

Sulfide: S2-

Chloride: Cl2-

A few polyatomic ions have names ending in -ide as well

Peroxide: O22-

Hydroxide: OH-

Cyanide; CN-

Ions with names ending in -ate are polyatomic anions that contain the maximum oxygen for that atom. The prefix per- indicates an even higher number of oxygen atoms and/or a higher oxidation state:

Carbonate: CO32-

Acetate: C2H3O2-

Nitrate: NO3-

Sulfate: SO42-

Cyanate: OCN-

Chlorate: ClO3-

Perchlorate: ClO4-

A few ions ending in -ate, however, do not contain oxygen

Thiocyanate: SCN-

Hexafluorosilicate: SiF62-

Tetrafluoroborate: BF4-

Is silver nitrate a positive ion or negative ion?

Silver nitrate (AgNO3) contains a positive silver ion (Ag+) and a negative nitrate ion (NO3-). Silver ion is positively charged because it has lost one electron, while the nitrate ion is negatively charged due to its structure.
