Answer:
When an atom loses an electron and becomes positively charged ion ,then the atom is called cation...
When an atom gains an electron and becomes negatively charged ion,it is called an anion......
Explanation:
take an example. ...of sodium and chlorine...
the electronic configuration of sodium is 2, 8,1 which means that to become stable it needs to donate one electron from its outermost orbit or shell. ...the electronic configuration of chlorine is 2,8,7 which means to become stable it needs one more electron .....
So sodium (Na) would give an electron and become Na+ (cation) and chlorine would accept that electron from sodium and become Cl-(anion).......
