The xylem is the structure of the plant that is responsible for transporting water from the ground up to the different parts of the plant. It is composed water, inorganic ions, and a number of organic chemicals.  
<span>
Xylem tissue is found throughout the plant because not only does it transport water, but it also transports the nutrients that the plant needs for different processes. Aside from being responsible for the transportation of materials, the xylem is also used to replace water that was lost during photosynthesis and transpiration. </span>

Are the elements anions or cation and what's there new name if they're anions
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Cations are ions that are positively charged. They form when they lose an electron because they would have more protons than electrons. In your problem you have for example potassium (number three).

Iodine is a cation because it lost one electron. The ion symbol then would be:

I ⁺

So this is your clue. If it has a positive or a plus sign on top, that would make it a cation. Another clue would be if it LOST an electron, then it is a cation.

An anion, on the other hand, is negatively charged, because they gain electrons, making the electrons more than the protons. In your problem, you have Iodine as an example (number one).

Iodine gained one electron and the ion symbol would be:

I⁻

So again that is your clue for anions, they have a negative or a minus sign on top of the symbol. If they GAINED an electron, that would make them an anion.

Naming monoatomic anions is easy. They are named with the suffix -ide at the end. (Cations retain their name). For example Sulfur (number two).

Sulfur is an anion that gained two electrons with an ion symbol of:

S²⁻

So from the name <u>Sulfur</u><u> </u>the name will change into "Sulfide" and its name will now be <u>Sulfide ion. </u>
