positive ions are smaller than the ions from which they are formed but negative ions are larger than the is from which they are

Vadim26 [7]

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.
