It can help identify whether or not the molecule or ion is polar as well as identify if there are any "ends" of the molecule which can be more easily involved in a reaction.

What does an ion have that a neutral molecule does not have?
An ion has an electrical charge.
What is the most important type of intermolecular forces between a molecule of water and a sodium ion in the water?
ionic bonding
A hydronium ion is actually a water molecule bonded to what ion?
A hydrogen ion, H+
What are the differences between molecule and molecular ion?
A molecular ion is a type of ion that either has less or more electrons than it has protons. A polar molecule is a molecule that has positive charges near its center and negative charges outside that center.
Is an ion an or molecule that carries a charge?
A molecule hasn't an electrical charge. An ion has a positive charge (cation) or a negative charge (anion).
Which molecule or ion has a linear shape?
BeCl2
What shape does the molecule ClF2 plus have?
The ClF2+ ion is bent. (The VSEPR AXE notation is AX2E2 ). The ClF2- ion (AX2E3) is linear.
What molecule or ion have a linear shape?
For example nitric oxide (NO) and beryllium hydride (BeH2) have linear molecules.
What a ion?
An ion is a positively or negatively charged atom or molecule.
Why are there many molecule clocks in a genome instead of just one?
ion know
Does h20 represent a molecule?
Yes, it does. It is composed of 2 Hydrogen ions covalently bonded (bent shape) to one Oxygen ion. Since they are covalently bonded, it is a molecule.
What type of molecule is Na plus?
Na+ is not a molecule; it is an ion, specifically a sodium ion.
Is A polar molecule an ion?
No a molecule is a molecule, polar or nonpolar.
Is an polar molecule an ion?
No a molecule is a molecule, polar or nonpolar.
How does hydronium ion form?
when a water molecule gains an hydrogen ion from another water molecule
Which is stable chlorine ion or chlorine molecule?
Chlorine ion (particularly Chloride ion) is more stable than Chlorine molecule
What does an ion have that a neutral molecule does not have?
An ion has an electrical charge.
