cations have no dots because they have donated their electrons.
true
false

Explanation:

In Lewis dot structures, cations are formed when atoms lose (donate) electrons. Since the dots represent valence electrons, a cation has fewer valence electrons (or may have lost all its valence electrons in some cases like \(Na^+\) which had 1 valence electron and loses it). So, cations have fewer or no dots compared to the neutral atom from which they are formed.

Answer:

True
