Jun 29, 2014. An atom becomes an Ion (a) if it gains one or more electron(s) or (b) if it loses one or more electron(s). When it gains electrons it becomes negatively charged and is called an anion. When it loses electron(s) it becomes positively charged and is called a cation.
Remember if an ion has a positive (+) charge (cation) you must subtract electrons from your total. And, if the element is an anion (negative charge), you must add electrons to your total. Look at the example below: Given: Al 3+ Aluminum will lose three electrons when it forms an ion. So although a neutral atom of aluminum has 13 electrons, the ion of aluminum, Al 3+, has lost three electrons and only has 10. Thus, you should write the electron configuration for 10 electrons.
