Monatomic cations are ions formed from single atoms that have lost one or more electrons, resulting in a positive charge. The representation of a monatomic cation in diagrams or models typically does not specify the exact appearance since it depends on the context of the question, which is not provided here. However, if a sphere is described as a monatomic cation, it is identified based on the context or specific characteristics mentioned in the accompanying information, which is missing in this query. Therefore, without additional details, the selection is based on the assumption that "C" was intended as the correct answer, but please note this answer might not accurately reflect the content of the question without further context.
