Positive + Negative = Negative Negative + Negative = Positive Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Positive = Negative
The rules for the sign (positive or negative) of the result of a multiplication is the same as division. For multiplication: Positive * Positive --> Positive Positive * Negative --> Negative Negative * Positive --> Negative Negative * Negative --> Positive For division: Positive / Positive --> Positive Positive / Negative --> Negative Negative / Positive --> Negative Negative / Negative --> Positive
a negative x a negative= a positive, a positive x a positive= a positive, a negative x a positive= a negative, and a positive x a negative= a negative. Same thing with division. a negative divided by a negative= a positive, a positive divided by a positive= a positive, a negative divided by a positive= a negative, and a positive divided by a negative is a negative. U see?
positive 49 Because a negative times a negative is a positive. -7*-7=49. positive * positive = positive negative * negative= positive positive * negative = Negative
It depends. (a) a positive minus a smaller positive is positive, (b) a positive minus a positive of the same size is zero, and (c) a positive minus a bigger positive is negative. For example, (a) 8 - 6 = 2 (b) 8 - 8 = 0 (c) 8 - 11 = -3
A cation has a positive charge and an anion has a negative charge.
A negative ion is called an anion, while a positive ion is called a cation.
Positive charge: cationNegative charge: anion
Anion is a negative ion (Cl-) and cation is a positive ion (Na+).
A cation is a positive ion (as Na+). An anion is a negative ion (as Cl-).
It's an ion. Cation for positive and anion for a negative atom
No, an anion is a negatively charged ion. It has gained one or more electrons, resulting in a negative charge.
No, an ionic compound needs an anion (negative ion) and a cation (positive ion).
An ion's charge will be either positive or negative, but not both. The charges are mutually exclusive. A positive ion is called a cation, and a negative ion is called an anion.
An ion can be either a cation or an anion, depending on whether it carries a positive or negative charge, respectively. Cations have a positive charge because they have lost electrons, while anions have a negative charge because they have gained electrons.
Copper is the cation (+) and sulfur the anion (-).
A negative ion is known as an anion. Anions are atoms or molecules that have gained one or more extra electrons, giving them a negative charge.
