Compounds that consist of ions are known as ionic atoms. Atoms that gain or lose electrons are called ions, ions may have a negative charge or positive charge. Nonmetals lose electrons to gain negative charge and form anions, whereas metals lose electrons to gain positive charge and form cations. Anions are ions that have negative charge and cations are ions that tend to have a positive charge. Ionic bonds are generally between metals and non-metals.
