No electrons or protons, which you can't have...
A charged atom is an ion. A positively charged version is a cation and a negatively charged one, an anion.
Not quite. You can have an atom of an element, for example an atom of Hydrogen, but not a Hydrogen of an atom. The parts of an atom are protons (positively charged), neutrons (no charge), and electrons (negatively charged).

A charged atom is an ion. An atom that has lost one or more electrons becomes a positively charged ion called a cation. An atom that has gained one or more electrons becomes a negatively charged ion called an anion.
The oxygen atom, which is negatively charged, is on one end ("pole") of the molecule, and the hydrogen atoms, which are positively charged, are on the other pole.
Ionic bonds are made between two atoms that have exchanged one or more electrons. One of the atoms will be positively charged and one atom will be negatively charged; the bond is actually the attraction between the positively charged atom and the negatively charged atom.
No, atoms are neutral. Atoms can be charged by adding or deleting an electron(s). A charged atom is an ion. An atom that has lost one or more electrons becomes a positively charged ion called a cation. An atom that has gained one or more electrons becomes a negatively charged ion called an anion.
Electrons are always responsible for electric discharges and one example is lightning. when one electron gets charged in an atom it starts moving rapidly and bursts out of its atom and jumps from one electron to another electrically charging each of the electrons and forms a chain and creates the ligtning which we see in a nanosecond.
A positively charged atom or molecule is one that has lost one or more electrons, resulting in an excess of positively charged protons in its nucleus. This imbalance creates an overall positive charge on the atom or molecule.
None. A hydrogen atom has one proton and one electron (no neutron). Removing the electron leads to just a proton, no electrons.

An atom becomes charged when it either gains or loses one or more electrons. If an atom gains electrons, it becomes negatively charged (anion); if it loses electrons, it becomes positively charged (cation). This process is known as ionization.
