Is an electron the overall charge of an atom?

No.. The overall charge of an atom is neutron because it's balanced :)


Where can you find electrons in a atom?

Electrons are found in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus of an atom in specific energy levels or orbitals. They are negatively charged subatomic particles that contribute to the overall charge and behavior of the atom.


What is the overall charge of the oxygen atom?

The overall charge of any atom is 0. This is because the overall charge is number of protons - number of electrons. For every atom the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons so it is 0.


What is an atom that has no overall charge is?

A: Neutron


What is the general overall charge of an atom?

A neutral atom hasn't an electrical charge.


Where in an atom do you find a proton?

You can find a proton (+) in the center of a atom.


Where do you find a neutron in a atom?

you can find the neutron in the center of an atom.


How do you find the oxidation numbers?

For a neutral atom or compound, the oxidation number is always 0. For an ion, the overall oxidation number is its charge. If you need to find an oxidation number to a particular atom of a compound, there are two ways: working out the Lewis structures or balancing the charges.

The overall charge of any atom is 0. This is because the overall charge is number of protons - number of electrons. For every atom the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons so it is 0.


What is the overall charge of helium atom?

The overall charge on He is 0. It is a noble element.


What is the overall charge on any atom?

An atom is neutral, and therefore has an overall charge of zero. If an atom either loses or gains electrons through a chemical reaction, or loses protons through radioactive decay, so that it then has an overall charge, it is no longer considered to be an atom but is classified as an ion.
