Tetra-atomic may refer to either molecules or ions. Tetra-atomic molecules or ions are those species which are formed when 4 atoms chemically combine together, that is they contain 4 atoms. For example, NH3, SO3 are examples of tetra-atomic molecules, CO32- is a tetra-atomic ion.

Polyatomic ions are charged species that contain two or more than two covalently linked atoms. ... Tetra atomic ions are a type of polyatomic ions. Examples of tetra atomic ions are, H3O+( 3 atoms of H + 1 atom of O), SO32
