Answer:

Cation

Explanation:

Since the protons are greater than electrons, this means the atom has a net positive charge on it and is now called a cation.

As there are 4 protons, this means that the outermost shell has 2 valence electrons 2s1, 2s2 and this is Group 2 element. Looking at Periodic table, we find that this is beryllium 4Be5 and is denoted as Be^2+
