_________________________________

✴$\bold{Cation}$

✔Positively charged ions are known as cations.

✔Cations are formed by loss of electrons by an atom.

✔In a cation, number of electrons are less than number of protons.

✔Eg:- ${Na}^{ + }$, ${Mg}^{2 + }$

✴$\bold{Anion}$

✔Negatively charged ions are known as anions.

✔Anions are formed by gaining of electron by an atom.

✔In anions, number of electrons are more than the number of protons.

✔Eg:- ${Cl}^{ - }$, ${O}^{2 - }$
