검증된 단계별 안내1
Review the charges on each polyatomic ion given in the problem: Phosphate (PO_4^{3-}), Nitrate (NO_3^-), Ammonium (NH_4^+), and Sulfate (SO_4^{2-}).
Recall that most common polyatomic ions carry a negative charge, which is indicated by the superscript minus signs (e.g., 3-, 2-, or 1-).
Identify the ion with a positive charge by looking for a superscript plus sign (+) in its formula.
Note that Ammonium (NH_4^+) is the only polyatomic ion listed with a positive charge, as indicated by the superscript plus sign.
Conclude that Ammonium is the polyatomic ion with a positive charge, while the others are negatively charged ions.
