any atom lose one electron or more become positive ion ( Cation )
Dont really get your question:( BY definition, an atom that has lost or gained an electron meaning its a charged particle. A cation is an atom that has lost electrons to form a positively charged atom meaning that a cation is an ion.
However, an anion also falls under the definition of an ion ( An anion is an atom that has gained an electron to form a negatively charged particle) In that case, it will need to lose electrons to form a cation(positively charged particle.) Not sure if you are referring to that though hope that helps:DD

Is silver a cation or anion?
Silver is normally not a cation or an anion, it is an element. Once it becomes an ion however, it will become a CATION with a +1 charge (Ag^+).

A common name for a cation is a positively charged ion.
What is the name of the ion Ca2 plus?
Ca2+ is a cation formed by Calcium to become stable and attain the noble gas configuration of Argon. Calcium forms this cation by losing two electrons
What does anion cation mean?
Anion is a negative ion (Cl-) and cation is a positive ion (Na+).
What ions that carry a positive charge called?
An ion with a positive charge is called a cation, and has a superscript + sign to the right of it An ion with a negative charge is called an anion, and has a superscript - sign to the right of it

What happens when object losses electrons?
This element become a positive ion (cation).
What happen if the atom become positively charge?
It becomes an ion. Specifically a cation.

It depends, a proton if is is positively charged ( +) electron if it is negatively charged ( - )
What is the ion symbol of the cation Mn2S3?
The cation Mn2S3 contains a manganese ion (Mn) with a charge of +2. Therefore, the ion symbol for this cation is written as Mn^2+.
Is silver a cation or an anion?
Silver is normally not a cation or an anion, it is an element. Once it becomes an ion however, it will become a CATION with a +1 charge (Ag^+).
Is sodium an anion or a cation?
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.
