The cation in the compound its Li+
what is the cation of Be3N2
Well, a polyatomic may contain a cation in it. A cation is a positively charged ion. They are usually metals. A good way to remember is: "cats" have "paws" because they are "pawsitive". Cheesy, right? Anyways, an example of a polyatomic that contains a cation is NH4+. You know that this polyatomic has a cation by the +1 superscript. This + sign signifies a positive ion, which is called a cation!
A cation is an ion with a positive charge. Ex: Iron(III) ion, Ca2+, Mercurous ion
The cation is Mn(3+).
Because it is the ION obtained at the cathode..
what is the cation of Be3N2
barium ion is a cation. rest listed are anions.
it is called a cation and a negitively charged ion is an anion
Sodium is a cation because it readily loses one electron to achieve a stable electron configuration, resulting in a positively charged ion. As a result, sodium becomes a cation with a 1+ charge.
Anion is a negative ion (Cl-) and cation is a positive ion (Na+).
A common name for a cation is a positively charged ion.

An ion with a positive charge is called a cation, and has a superscript + sign to the right of it An ion with a negative charge is called an anion, and has a superscript - sign to the right of it
An arsanylium ion is a cation H2As+ derived from arsine, or any organic derivative of this cation.
A cation is a positive ion (as Na+). An anion is a negative ion (as Cl-).
Potassium is a cation, since it has a positive charge. It loses an electron to form a +1 charge, making it a positively charged ion.
