Question

Evaluate

i) Cation ii) relative atomic mass iii) ion​

Answer 1

Answer:

i) Cation : A positively charged ion that is attracted to the cathode in electrolysis. Any positively charged atom or group of atoms.

ii) relative atomic mass : the ratio of the average mass per atom of the naturally occurring form of an element to one-twelfth the mass of an atom of carbon-12.

iii) ion​ : an electrically charged atom or group of atoms formed by the loss or gain of one or more electrons, as a cation (positive ion ), which is created by electron loss and is attracted to the cathode in electrolysis, or as an anion (negative ion ), which is created by an electron gain and is attracted to the anode.
