an ion is divided into cation and an anion . cation has a positive sign whereas anion a negative.
anion
Aluminium, like most metals, forms cations easier than it does anions. The most common for aluminum is Al3+, when it has lost three electrons.
Anion is a negative ion (Cl-) and cation is a positive ion (Na+).
Boron is an element and is neither an anion or cation. If ionized it would tend to from B3+ and would be thus a cation.
