Cesium is an element that forms a cation.
Cesium is a cation, meaning it is a positively charged ion. It forms the Cs+ cation when it loses an electron.
The compound CsNO2 is called cesium nitrite. It is composed of cesium (Cs) cation and nitrite (NO2) anion.
The simplest chemical formula for cesium carbonate is Cs2CO3, as it consists of one cesium (Cs) cation and one carbonate (CO3) anion.
The chemical formula is CsBr since Cesium takes a +1 ion charge while Bromide takes a -1 ion charge so they cancel each other out and you are left with CsBr.
Chloride is an anion. It carries a negative charge due to the gain of an electron.
Cesium is a cation, meaning it is a positively charged ion. It forms the Cs+ cation when it loses an electron.
The compound CsNO2 is called cesium nitrite. It is composed of cesium (Cs) cation and nitrite (NO2) anion.
The simplest chemical formula for cesium carbonate is Cs2CO3, as it consists of one cesium (Cs) cation and one carbonate (CO3) anion.
The cation would be C6H5NH3+ and the anion would be C6H5NH-
The cation of potassium cyanide is potassium (K+) and the anion is cyanide (CN-).

Can an ionic compound ever consist of a cation-cation or anion- anion bond? Explain.
Oxygen is neither a cation nor an anion. It is a neutral element.
CR is a cation.
Anion is a negative ion (Cl-) and cation is a positive ion (Na+).
