Metals generally form cations, meaning they become positively charge - this positive charge is due to the loss of electrons.
S_A_V [24]3 years ago

Answer: -

Cation

Explanation: -

Metals have low ionization enthalpy. So they tend to lose it's electrons to fulfill octet.

Upon losing electrons, a metal atom has more protons than neutrons.

The electrical neutrality of the atom is no longer there.

The metal atom after losing electron has a positive charge.

They are referred to as cations.

Lower the group of periodic table an element is found, more is it's tendency to form cations.

Scenes A and B depict changes in matter at the atomic scale:
kaheart [24]

Scene B depicts chemical change in matter at atomic change.

Composition distinguishes a chemical reaction from a physical reaction. In a chemical process, the makeup of the components changes; in a physical change, the appearance, smell, or straightforward exhibition of a sample of matter changes without changing its composition. Despite the fact that we refer to them as physical "reactions," nothing is actually changing. A change in the substance in question's elemental composition is necessary for a reaction to occur. Therefore, from now on, we will simply refer to bodily "reactions" as physical changes.
