When an atom receives an electron it becomes more?
The atom then becomes negatively charged
When an atom gains an electron it?
becomes an anion. Negatively charged.
When an atom loses an electron and become negatively charged we refer to it as an?
When an atom loses an electron and becomes negatively charged we refer to it as a positive ion
What happens when chlorine atom gains an electron in its outer energy?
No! Electrons are negatively charged. A neutral atom gaining a electron will, by necessity, become negatively charged. Cl(-)
How does an object change as it gains more electrons?
It becomes negatively charged.
A cat becomes negatively charged when it's brushed. How does the electric charge on the brush compare to the charge on the cat?
An object becomes negatively charged when electrons are transferred to it from another object it comes in contact with that has a higher negative charge. Therefore, the brush must have more a electrons than the cat and a higher negative charge.
When an atom loses an electron and becomes negatively charged we refer to it as?
When an atom loses an electron and becomes negatively charged we refer to it as a positive ion
How does an atom negatively charge?
An atom becomes negatively charged when it receives an electron from another atom. In other words, if there are more electrons than protons in an atom, it becomes negatively charged.
What happens to a material which gains electrons?
It becomes more negatively charged, since electrons carry a negative charge.
What happens when a atom gains an electron?
When an atom gains an electron it becomes an ion with a charge of negative one. This charge comes from the electron's negativity, which changes the atom's balanced ratio of electrons to protons.

How does an atom becomes Negatively charged?
An atom becomes negatively charged when it receives an electron from another atom. In other words, if there are more electrons than protons in an atom, it becomes negatively charged.
If you rub a balloon with wool does it become negatively or positively charged?
It becomes negatively charged because Wool readily gives away its electrons.
When an atom loses an electron and become negatively charged we refer to it as an?
When an atom loses an electron and becomes negatively charged we refer to it as a positive ion
A balloon becomes negatively charged when rubbed against someone's sleevehow does it becomes charged?
Friction from rubbing the balloon on a sleeve creates static electricy,therefore the balloon becomes negatively charged.
What happens when a positively charged electron becomes neutral?
Electrons are negatively charged. They cannot be positively charged or neutral.
