Answer:
A cation is an ion with fewer electrons than protons. Therefore, it has a positive charge. The electric charge on a proton is equal in amount to the charge on an electron. Anions are atoms or radicals (groups of atoms), that have gained electrons. Since they now have more electrons than protons, anions have a negative charge. Halogens always form anions, alkali metals and alkaline earth metals always form cations. Most other metals form cations (e.g. iron, silver, nickel), whilst most other nonmetals typically form anions (e.g. oxygen, carbon, sulfur).
Explanation:
An anion and cation cannot be specifically found on the periodic table.

Answer:
Alkane
Explanation:
Definition of Alkane "any of the series of saturated hydrocarbons including methane, ethane, propane, and higher members. (google dictionary)"
CH4 is methane.
AXz
Explanation:
It is a chemical notation of nuclide
Here X is the symbol of the element
A is the mass number of element
A=n+p(sum of protons and neutrons)
Z is the atomic number.
For example, 12C6
Hers X is C, symbol of carbon
12 is the mass number and 6 is the atomic number of the carbon.
Answer:
Atoms form chemical bonds to make their outer electron shells more stable. ... An ionic bond, where one atom essentially donates an electron to another, forms when one atom becomes stable by losing its outer electrons and the other atoms become stable (usually by filling its valence shell) by gaining the electrons.
