Ion (Boiler)

A charged atom or radical which may be positive or negative.

Ion (Carpet)

A molecule sized particle tht has either a positive or negtive charge.

Ion (Chemistry)

An atom with an electric charge due to gain or loss of electrons.

Ion (Corrosion)

An atom, or group of atoms, that has gained or lost one or more outer electrons and thus carries an electric charge. Positive ions, or cations, are deficient in outer electrons. Negative ions, or anions, have an excess of outer electrons

Ion (Electric Power)

An atom that is electrically-charged because of loss or gain of electrons.

Ion (Energy)

An atom or group of atoms that is electrically charged.

Ion (Environment)

An electrically charged atom or group of atoms.

Ion (Environmental Toxins)

Atomic particle, atom or chemical radical bearing an electric charge, either negative or positive.

Ion (Huntingtons Disease)

An atom or group of atoms that carries a positive or negative electric charge as a result of having lost or gained one or more electrons (negatively-charged particles). An example of an ion is Na+ (a sodium atom that has become positively charged by losing an electron).

Ion (Nuclear)

An atom that is electrically charged because of loss or gain of electrons.

Ion (Nuclear Science)

An atomic particle that is electrically charged, either negative or positive.

Ion (Physical Geography)

An atom, molecule or compound that carries either a positive (cation) or negative (anion) electrical charge.

Ion (Plumbing)

An atom or group of atoms which function as a unit, and have a positive (cation) or negative (anion) electrical charge, due to the gain or loss of one or more electrons.

Ion (Prostate Cancer)

Atom or molecule that has acquired an electric charge by the loss or gain of one or more electrons

Ion (Pyrotechnics)

An atom with a larger/smaller than normal number of electrons, resulting in an overall negative or positive charge, respectively

Ion (Robotics)

An atom with a different number of electrons than protons. An ion will therefore have a net electric charge.

Ion (Sanitation)

A charged atom or radical, the migration of which affects the transport of electricity through an electrolyte or, to a certain extent, through a gas. An atom or molecule that has lost or gained one or more electrons.

Ion (Science)

An atom or molecule that has become electrically charged through the loss or gain of one or more electrons.

Ion (Solar Energy)

An electrically charged atom or group of atoms that has lost or gained electrons; a loss makes the resulting particle positively charged; a gain makes the particle negatively charged.

Ion (Solar Physics)

An atom that has lost or gained one or more electrons and has become electrically charged as a result.
