if there is a stable element , then it would have the same number of protons and electrons.
a cation is an ion which loses an electron.
therefore the number of protons in it increases, due to which it becomes positively charged.

Ions result from atoms or molecules that have gained or lost one or more valence electrons, giving them apositive or negative charge. Those with a negative charge are called anions and those with a positive charge are called cations. ... It has more protons than electrons, resulting in the positive charge.
