Best Answer

The answer is an ion.

An ion is what is left when the process of ionization has occured. Ionization is when an atom either gains or loses an electron, depending on the amount in its outer shell. There are many ways for this to happen including reacting with other atoms or absorbing radiation. An electron has a charge of 1-, therefore gaining an electron gives the ion a charge of 1- and losing an electron gives the ion a charge of 1+

The positively charged particle in an atom is called a proton. Protons (and Neutrons) are found in the nucleus, or center, of an atom. The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom are also what give the atom it's atomic number.

What is an atom called if it does not have a charge?

A neutron because it has a neutral charge. An uncharged atom is just called by its name, e.g. a Silver or an Iron atom. A charged atom is called an Ion: Cations are positively charged and Anions are negatively charged. A neutron is subatomic particle, not an atom. Atoms consist of neutral neutrons, negatively charged electrons, and positively charged protons.


What are atoms called when they become charged positively or negative?

In general, an atom with a charge, either positive or negative, is called an ion.A positively charged atom is called a cation and a negatively charged atom is an anion.
