it is called ion or cation to be more specific.
What else can I help you with?
What happpens when an atom has lost an electron contact with an atom that has gained an electron?
It forms a new atom.
What are differences between atom and ion?
An atom has no charge. An ion is an atom that has either gained or lost an electron giving it a charge. An atom that has gained an electron is called an anion and is negative, while an atom that lost an electron is called a cation and is positive.

What happens when an atom that has lost an electron in contact with an atom that has gain an electron?
They form an ionic compound.
What happens when an atom that has lost an electron in contact with an atom that has gained an electron?
They form an ionic compound.
What happens when an atom that has lost an electron comes in contact with a atom that has gained a electron?
-Apex: They form an Ionic Compound.
What happens when an atom that has lost an electronic comes in contact with an atom that has gained an electron?
They form an ionic compound.
What does an atom that has lost or gained an electron become?
Generically an "ion", specifically gained an electron an "anion", lost and electron a "cation".
What happens when an atom that has lost an electron comes in contact with an atom that gained an electron?
They form an ionic compound.
What happens when an Atom that has lost in electron comes in contact with an Atom that has gained an electron?
They form an ionic compound.
What type of atom is formed when an electron is gained or lost by a neutral atom?
NO!!! Atom is formed by the gain/loss of electrons. When an atom gain/loses electrons it is an ION NOT an atom. NB A positively (+) charged ion is a CATION A negatively (-) charged ion is an ANION .
