Li ( lithium) is an ATOM.
However, when it ionises (loses) an electron it becomes the Lithium ion (Li^(+)).
Positive ions are collectively named as CATIONS.
Negative ions are collectively named as ANIONS.
NB An atom is an UNcharged species of any element. When it becomes a charged species, then it is an ION. Cation(+) & Anion(-) .

What is the cation and anion for lithium sulfide?
The cation in lithium sulfide is Li+, which is the lithium ion. The anion in lithium sulfide is S2-, which is the sulfide ion.
What is lithium cation or anion?
Lithium is cation, because it is positivelycharged. Whenever a single element is positive , like calcium, it will be cation.While oxygen, which is negatively charged, will be anion.

Does lithium form cations?
Elemental lithium (Li) is neither a cation nor an anion. But when Li loses it's one valence electron, it will become a CATION (Li^+).
