An ion is a particle, an atom or molecule. It is an atom that has a net electrical charge in which the total number of electrons is not equal to the total number of protons, giving the atom a net positive or negative electrical charge.

Answer:

Ions are an atom or group of atoms that either has a positive or negative charge. An ion with a negative charge is called an anion and one with a positive charge is a cation.

Hope this helps :)
