Simple cations are formally called by their element names with a suffixed Roman numeral in parentheses to indicate its charge. A simple anion has a name that is the original elemental name with the final syllable changed to -ide.

Answer:

Explanation:

The cations are positively charged ions and the anions are negatively charged ions.

Simple cations and anions are named:

Cations that are formed from metal atoms have the same name as metal.  If a metal can form cations of different charges, the positive charge is indicated by a Roman number in parentheses after the name of the metal. Cations formed from non-metal atoms have names that end in -ium.

The names of monoatomic anions, as well as some polyatomic anions that do not contain oxygen, are formed by replacing the termination of the element's name with –ide.
