Answer:

A. It has lost one electron

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the H has been replaced by a +, this means that the Hydrogen is now a positive ion. For this to happen, it would have to lose an electron.

Gaining one would make it negative, and protons cannot be gained or lost under normal circumstances.
