Questions and Answers

What defines a cation in ionic compounds?

  • An ion that has gained electrons.
  • An ion with a positive charge. (correct)
  • An atom with no charge.
  • A negatively charged ion.

What is the likely reason for difficulty in identifying ions in complex mixtures?

  • One species may interfere with the analytical test for another. (correct)
  • The presence of anions complicates the tests significantly.
  • Ions may not react with any reagents.
