no, it looses them
The charge of an atom depends on the electrons compared to protons. Electrons being negatively charged, protons being positive. If there are more protons, the atom is positive, and if there are more electrons, the atom is negative.
The proton is the subatomic particle of the atom that carries a positive charge.
Protons are positive Neutrons are neutral and electrons are negative. the electrons are also in the electron clouds. the protons and neutrons of an atom are in the nucleus.
It is positive
if the atom has more protons then electrons it is positive and vis versa
Protons are a positively charged particles in an atom.
If an atom is positively charged, it has lost one or more electrons and has more protons than electrons. This results in an overall positive charge due to the unbalanced positive charges from the protons.
Protons are positive and they are found in the nucleus.
Protons have positive charge
No, an atom cannot gain or lose protons. Protons are the positively charged particles within the nucleus of an atom, and changing the number of protons would change the atom's identity. However, atoms can gain or lose electrons, which affects their charge but not their identity.
An atom consists of 3 types of particles, neutrons, protons and electrons. The proton is positive.
Protons.
