How do you write the formula of a cation?

A cation is a positively charged particle that is attracted to a negative cathode. Cations are formed when an atom loses an electron to have a full outer shell. Metals usually lose electrons to form a cation. They have a positive charge because the atom now has more protons (positive) than electrons (negative). Example Na+, Mg2+ , Al3+ Heather (N Ireland)
