1. Ions are either negatively or positively charged species in which the number of electrons and protons are not equal.

2. The chemical bond that arises due to the sharing of electrons is termed a covalent bond.

3. The positively charged ions are called cations, which comprise more protons than electrons.

4. An example of a polyatomic anion is the hydroxide anion.

5. The system of assigning an unambiguous name to a compound is called nomenclature.
