Answer:
what are electro positive ion?
- Electropositivity can be defined as the tendency of an atom to donate electrons and form positively charged cations. This property is primarily exhibited by metallic elements, especially the alkali metals and the alkaline earth metals. ... Electropositive elements often form ionic salts with electronegative elements.

what are electronegative ion??
- Electronegativity is a measure of an atom's ability to attract the shared electrons of a covalent bond to itself. ... If the difference in electronegativity is large enough, the electrons will not be shared at all; the more electronegative atom will "take" them resulting in two ions and an ionic bond.
Examples of electropositive??
- Be2+, Mg2+, Ca2+.
- Li+, Na+, K+,
- Examples of Electronegativity
- The Concept of Electronegativity. Unlike many other periodic trends, electronegativity does not have actual units. ...
- Sodium Chloride, an Ionic Bond. Sodium has an electronegativity of 0.9, while chlorine has an electronegativity of 3.0. ...
- Water, a Polar Bond. ...
- Hydrogen Gas, a Covalent Bond.
