Answer:
The terms monatomic and polyatomic describes the atomicity of molecules or ions. Atomicity is the number of atoms present in a molecule or an ion. This is the main difference between monatomic and polyatomic ions. Monatomic ions are composed of a single atom whereas polyatomic ions are composed of two or more atoms per ion. These ions can be either cations or anions. Both monatomic and polyatomic ions can form ionic compounds by having electrostatic attractions with the ions of opposite electrical charge.
