Cations. It's one word.

Cations are positively charged ions. Like metals: (Na+, Ba2+, Mg2+, Pb2+ or Pb4+, etc) or Ammonium (NH4)+

Their opposites are Anions, which are negatively charged. Like most polyatomics: (NO3)-, (SO4)2-, etc, and nonmetals: Cl-, O2-, N3-,

How do hydroxyl ions and hydronium ions affect pH?

Hydroxyl ions (OH-) increase pH by combining with hydronium ions (H3O+) to form water molecules, reducing the concentration of hydronium ions. Hydronium ions (H3O+) decrease pH by increasing the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution, making it more acidic.
