Die woord "ioon" is 'n selfstandige naamwoord wat verwys na 'n elektries gelaaide deeltjie, hetsy positief gelaai (genoem 'n katioon) of negatief gelaai (genoem 'n anioon). Ione word gevorm wanneer 'n atoom elektrone bykry of verloor, wat lei tot 'n ongelyke aantal protone en elektrone, en dus 'n netto elektriese lading. Ione speel belangrike rolle in verskeie chemiese, fisiese en biologiese prosesse, insluitend chemiese reaksies, elektriese geleiding in senuwees en spiere, en die vorming van atmosferiese verskynsels soos weerlig.
