Answer:

It is called an ion.

Explanation:

Atoms of elements can lose or gain electrons making them no longer neutral, they become charged. A charged atom is called an ion. When an atom loses electron(s) it will lose some of its negative charge and so becomes positively charged. A positive ion is formed where an atom has more protons than electrons.
