Cations, lose

Explanation:

Positive ions are cations and they result when an atom lose electrons.

An atom is made up of subatomic particles:

  • Protons are positively charged particle in the nucleus of the atom
  • Neutrons carry no charges and they share the nucleus with protons.
  • The electrons are negatively charged.
  • When an atom loses an electron, it becomes a positive ion because the number of protons is now more than the number of electrons.
  • An anion forms in a reverse way.
