Metals give up electrons to become cation or anion

Chemistry

galina1969 [7]3 years ago

Metals usually become cations since electrons are negatively charged and when they are lost there are more protons than electrons making a positive net charge in the atom.  (cations are positively charged ions while anions are negatively charged ions)

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.
