Common Ion List

Ions are atoms that have a charge due to gaining or losing electrons. Cations are positively charged and include metals like sodium, calcium, and magnesium with charges of +1 or +2. Anions are negatively charged and include nonmetals like chloride, oxide, and sulfate with charges of -1 or -2. Some elements can have multiple charges like copper, iron, tin, and lead.
