### Polyatomic ions
|
||||
|
||||
A polyatomic ion consists of an element covalently bonded to oxygen atoms, ending up with a non-neutral charge. The parent form of these compounds is written as the non-oxygen element with the "-ate" suffix.
|
||||
A polyatomic ion is an ion formed only via covalent bonds. Most polyatomic ions are **oxyanions** and so contain oxygen and have negative charges.
