Answer:
1⁺ ion
Step-by-step explanation:
Metals in the first group on the periodic table will prefer to form 1⁺ ion. This is because the 1 valence electron in their orbital.
Most metals are electropositive and would prefer to lose electrons than to gain it.
Like all metals, the group 1 elements called the alkali metals would prefer to lose and electron.
On losing an electron the number of protons is then greater than the number of electrons. This leaves a net positive charge.
