    The answer to your question is C. Bromine

    Explanation:

    Metals form positive ions (cations)

    Nonmetals form negative ions (anions)

    Potassium is an alkaline metal, Magnesium and Strontium are alkaline earth metals, so they form positive ions.

    Bromine is a halogen, so it is a nonmetal that forms negative ions.
