Meitnerium has a neutral atom.
For a neutral atom to become an ion with a 2 plus charge it must LOSE TWO ELECTRONS.
A neutral atom differs in charge from a positive or negative ion.
It depends if it the ion of magnesium, if it is the ion, then it is positive. If not, then it is neutral.
ion That statement isn't true. An ion is an atom with an uneven amount of protons and electrons.
An ion has an electrical charge.
The product is neutral.
ION
by definition, ions are charged atoms. so a neutral ion doesn't exist
Meitnerium has a neutral atom.
The neutral atom of magnesium has no electrical charge; the ion is bivalent.
Non it is neutral
A neutron, which has neutral charge
The neutral hydrogen atom is neutral; the ion (H+) is positive.
No. It becomes a positive ion. Since neutral means having no charge the term "neutral ion" is self-contradictory; there is no such thing.
It is because there is an equal amount of positive and negative charge to produce a neutral charge. Just the presence of neutrons does not make the atom neutral. An atom will lose its neutral charge if it loses or gains electrons and becomes an ion
No. On its own oxygen is neutral. Its ion, the oxide ion, has a negative charge
