an·i·on (A-),

(an'ī-on),
An ion that carries a negative charge, going therefore to the positively charged anode; in salts, acid radicals are anions.

anion

A negatively charged ion that is attracted to an anode (positively-charged electrode), in electrolysis. Anions are usually shown as the second group in simple inorganic molecules, thus Cl- is the anion when common salt (NaCl) is dissociated in solution. Na+ is the CATION.
