About Positive Ions

In chemical reactions between metals and non-metals the metal elements form positive ions.
Hydrogen forms positive ions in some compounds and it is these H+ ions which can make solutions acidic.
Positive ions are attracted to negative ions and to the negative electrode (cathode) during electrolysis.
