When electrons are lost, a positive ion is formed. This is because there are now more protons than electrons causing the overall charge to be positive.

When electrons are gained, a negative ion is formed. This is because there are now more electrons than protons causing the overall charge to be negative.

Hope This Helps You!

Good Luck (:

Have A Great Day ^-^
