heya buddy ! here is ur answer...
An ion is an atom or group of atoms where the number of electrons is not equal to the number of protons
example - when chlorine takes an electron from sodium, and sodium gives that electron to chlorine, they become ions and form NaCl. Sodum is a cation (lost an electron and became positive) and chlorine is an anion (gained an electron and becomes negative) in this situation.
hope it helps....^_^
