Charged atoms of elements that have an unequal number of protons and electrons are called ions.. A perfect example of this is H+, which is a hydrogen with one less electron than normal. In other words, H+ is a single proton, with no electrons.
These substances are called ions.
An atom with an unequal number of protons and electrons is referred to as an ion. If it has more protons than electrons, it is called a cation and carries a positive charge. Conversely, if it has more electrons than protons, it is known as an anion and carries a negative charge.
An ion is a particle that has an unequal number of protons and electrons, resulting in a net positive or negative charge.
All atoms have the same number of protons and electrons, but an atom with a different number of protons and neutrons is called and isotope
An ion has unequal numbers of protons and electrons. This imbalance results in a net electrical charge: if there are more protons than electrons, the ion is positively charged (cation), while if there are more electrons than protons, it is negatively charged (anion). Neutrons remain unchanged in this process.
Ions.

Ions always have an unequal number of protons and electrons, resulting in a net electric charge. This charge can be positive if there are more protons than electrons, or negative if there are more electrons than protons. The number of neutrons in an ion can vary.

Ions are charged particles therefore ions must always have an unequal number of Protons and Electrons. Since the amount of protons, in general, can't change, then the amount of charge is controlled by how much electrons are present. E.g., If there is 7 protons and 7 electrons, the charge is 0 as the protons cancelled out the electrons. However if it gained 3 electrons, it would be 7 protons and 10 electrons and therefore have a charge of -3 (Because electrons are negatively charged)
