Positive ions are atoms that have lost an electron from its outtermost shell. It is positive because electrons are negative and the loss of something negative makes it a bit more positive.
A negative ion is larger than its original atom because it's gained an electron.
The more electrons an atomic has on its electron cloud, the bigger the atom.
Hopefully I didn't confuse you, good luck. ♡

In his experiment, Rutherford observed that many alpha particles were deflected at small angles while others were reflected back to the alpha source.
Answer:
