A positive ion is called a cation. It is formed when an atom loses one or more electrons, resulting in a net positive charge.
What is a positively charged ion called and how does an ion obtain a positive charge?
A positively charged ion is called a cation while a negatively charged ion is called a anion. It obtains a positive charge when it gives out electrons to another atom to gain stability. A positively charged ion is called a cation while a negatively charged ion is called a anion. It obtains a positive charge when it gives out electrons to another atom to gain stability.
