Explanation:
Ions
Charged element are defined as ions. Ion can't
When electrons are gained or lost by any element,ions are yielded.
There are two types of ions-
Cation
Anion
When any element gain electrons,cation are formed. Eg. Cl+e- =Cl-
When any element loses electrons anion are formed. Eg Na=Na(positive)+e-
Cation moves to anode plate while anion moves to cathode plate.
Ions can also be formed by dissociation of any compound like HCl dissociates in H+ and Cl-.
polyatomic ion
A polyatomic ion, also known as a molecular ion, is a charged chemical species composed of two or more atoms covalently bonded or of a metal complex that can be considered to be acting as a single unit. The prefix poly- means "many," in Greek, but even ions of two atoms are commonly referred to as polyatomic
hope it helps u ☹️☹️
These are charged particles ( species ) formed by atoms by loss or gain of electrons in valence shells.
_______________________________
Types :
These are of two types :
- Cations :
→These are positively charged ions. These are formed by loss of electrons by atoms from their valence shells.
Example :
Na+
Ca²+
Al³+
- Anions :
→These are negatively charged ions formed by gain of electrons by atoms in their valence shells.
Example :
Cl-
O²-
N³-
_______________________________
Polyatomic ions :
These are the ions formed by two or more atoms and behaving as a single unit in any chemical reaction.
Example :
Hydroxide - OH-
Carbonate - CO3²-
Bicarbonate - HCO3-
Sulphate - SO4²-
