Question

describe the formation of anion and cation by the following elements sulphur chlorine nitrogen megnesium lithiun

Answer 1

Answer:

A cation has more protons than electrons, consequently giving it a net positive charge. ... The number of electrons lost, and so the charge of the ion, is indicated after the chemical symbol, e.g. silver (Ag) loses one electron to become Ag+, whilst zinc (Zn) loses two electrons to become Zn2+.
