the answer is H is the cation
Explanation :
The general formula of an acid is represented as, in which 'H' is hydrogen cation and 'X' is a non-metal or a poly-atomic anion.
For example : etc.
All the acids produces hydrogen ion, in an aqueous solution while the base produces hydroxide ion, in an aqueous solution.
Even though Hydrogen is originally in group 1, based on this property, we can say it is in group 6.
Because:
Group 6 would mean that it only needs 2 more valence electrons till the octet (8 valence electrons). This would make it reactive, yet, in normal conditions, unlike group 7.
The Selenium is the element that is likely to be the most brittle
