How does a negative ion differ from an uncharged atom of the same element?
Katena32 [7]
When an atom or molecule accepts or looses an electron or electrons it gets either negative charge (when electrons gained) or a positive charge (when looses electron). The negative ion is called Anion and positve ion is called the Cation. An Ion can be Atomic or Polyatomic.

Example:
              Sodium when looses one electron forms a cation i.e. Na⁺

              Chlorine when gains one electron forms an Anion i.e. Cl⁻

Result:
          <span>A negative ion (Anion) differ from an uncharged atom of the same element in the number of electrons. An anion contains more electrons than its corresponding Neutral Element.</span>
