What does the nuclous do?

If you mean the nucleus, than I have the answer. The nucleus is the part of an atom that holds protons and neutrons. (Protons have positive charge, neutrons have no charge.)


What charge does the electron cloud of every atom have?

In a neutral atom, the charge on the electron cloud is balanced by the carge on the atom's nucleus. The nucleus has a positive charge proportional to the number of protons in it. This attracts and holds the negatively charged electrons in the electron cloud. And in a neutral atom (not an ion), there will be as many electrons in the electron cloud as protons in the nucleus. The charges will balance.


How does a proton get its charge?

The proton hs a nucleus in the atom which holds the charge. Like all hadrons, protons consist of three quarks: two ups and one down. The combination of these three results in a particle with a charge of positive one.

What is the overall charge of a carbon atom and three oxygen atoms?

Carbon as an atom has no charge, as all atoms are neutral particles. This is because they have equal numbers of protons and electrons, so the carbon atom has no charge.
