Understanding Anions: Negatively Charged Ions in Chemistry
Give example
Anionic means having a negative charge. In chemistry, anions are ions with a negative charge. They are formed when an atom or molecule gains one or more electrons.
Examples of anions include:
1. Chloride ion (Cl-)
2. Bromide ion (Br-)
3. Iodide ion (I-)
4. Acetate ion (CH3COO-)
5. Citrate ion (C6H8O7-)
6. Phosphate ion (PO4 2-)
7. Sulfate ion (SO4 2-)
8. Carbonate ion (CO3 2-)
9. Hydroxide ion (OH-)
10. Nitrate ion (NO3-)
These anions are commonly found in biological systems, such as in the blood, and also in many industrial processes, such as in the production of chemicals and pharmaceuticals.
