What is the charge on an atom after it loses an electron during the formation of a bond?

I believe the charge is positive as losing an electron suggests that the atom lost a negative charge, leaving it with more positive than negative.

I haven't taken this in a few years very sorry if i'm wrong tho.

Its charge is positive

Explanation:

A neutral atom has the same amount of proton and electrons, so the charges are cancelled. When an atom loses an electron, its charge becomes positive and its exact charge is 1+. Thus, it is formatted a cation that may interact with an anion (an atom who receives an electron) to form an ionic bond.

Bare in mind that electrons have a negative charge and protons have a positive charge.

can you list the answers so i can answer
