Question

cations have a _ charge.
a positive
b negative
c frivoluscharg

Explanation:

Cations are ions formed when an atom loses one or more electrons. Since electrons are negatively - charged particles, losing them results in the ion having a net positive charge. Anions, on the other hand, are ions with a negative charge as they gain electrons. "Frivolus charg" is not a valid term in the context of ion charges.

Answer:

A. Positive
