An ion is an atom with a net positive or negative charge due to an unequal number of protons and electrons.
More electrons than protons = negatively charged ion (this is called an anion).
More protons than electrons = positively charged ion (this is called a cation).
When there are a different number of protons and neutrons, this is called an isotope.
