18 IONS AND IONIC COMPOUNDS IONS are atoms or groups of atoms with a positive or negative charge.IONS are atoms or groups of atoms with a positive or negative charge. Taking away an electron from an atom gives a CATION with a positive chargeTaking away an electron from an atom gives a CATION with a positive charge Adding an electron to an atom gives an ANION with a negative charge.Adding an electron to an atom gives an ANION with a negative charge.

19 Forming Cations & Anions A CATION forms when an atom loses one or more electrons. An ANION forms when an atom gains one or more electrons Mg --> Mg 2+ + 2 e- F + e- --> F - oxidation reduction
