A hydrogen atom is only 1 proton and 1 electron, so when hydrogen is ionized it becomes H+. This is equivalent to a solitary proton.
virtually all metals react with HCl to produce hydrogen gas.

Helium is chemically inert as it has completely filled s-orbital. Hence helium will not form ions or compounds.

Xenon is a bob,e gas, which means that it can't form any cation or anion by itself. If it joins any other element, then it can form an ion.
Neon is an inert gas. It does not readily ionize in chemical reactions.
HCl gas is highly hygroscopic.
HCl is the chemical formula of hydrochloric acid.
If the acid is strong enough, carbon dioxide is evolved as a gas and a salt corresponding to the cation of the carbonate and the anion of the acid is formed.
I don't know about radon, but xenon gas, also a noble gas, is an anion when it makes compounds, as rarely as it does.

Beryllim is an element. It forms a Cation that has a 2+ charge, because it must lose electrons to gain a noble gas configuration. Anions gain electrons which would have a negative charge.

The easiest way for sodium (Na) to achieve noble gas stability is for it to lose 1 electron. When this happens, you still have 11 protons, but now you have 10 electrons. 11 positives and 10 negatives equals an overall +1 charge. A cation is a positively charged ion.
This is a classic acid-base reaction, just taking place in the gas phase. The HCl donates a proton to the NH3 to form the cation NH4+. It then forms NH4Cl, an ionic compound, with the remaining Cl- ion. Since both HCl and NH3 are colorless gases, the formation of white, solid NH4Cl appears to come out of nowhere.
Hydrogen is a cation because it would only need to lose an electron to become like a noble gas, who has their outer ring completely filled. Cation is an ion that is positive, and since it is losing an electron the result will end up with it having one more proton then electrons, making it positive. (Cation)
Fluorine is a neutral atom, though fluoride is an anion. Fluorine does not form cations, or any compound, complex ion, or coordinate complex in which it has a positive oxidation state, unlike the other halogens.
