When a atom losses a electron it becomes a?
It depends on the amount of electrons. Zaragotha (Zara)
What happens when a atom losses an electron?
It becomes a positively charged Ion called a cation.
When atom loses energy what happens to electron?
when an atom loses an energy , it loses a electron, so what exactly happens to an electron. when you are looking at the periodic tabel they are numbered in groups called group family 1-18 .for an example for what happens to an atom when it losses an electron .when a electron has a nuber lower that 4 it wants to reach at 0 electrtons and when a atom has higher than 6 elctrons it wants to reach at 8 elcrtons . when a atom losses a electron it gives it to another atom that has lower than 4 electrons who is trying to reach at 8
What soes an atom become when it losses or get an electron?
If it looses an electron, it becomes positively charged. If it gains one, it becomes negatively charged. These charged species are collectively called ions.
When a atom losses a electron it becomes what kind of ion?
A cation. A positively charged ion that is attracted towards the cathode in an electrolytic cell.
If an atom losses an electron it will be positive and called a what?
If an atom loses an electron, it becomes positively charged and is called a cation. This occurs because the number of positively charged protons in the nucleus is greater than the number of negatively charged electrons.
How Atoms can accept or lose electron's. If an atom loses an electron what will its resulting charge be?
Gain of an electron transform the atom in an anion.Loss of an electron transform the atom in a cation.
What happpens when an atom has lost an electron contact with an atom that has gained an electron?
It forms a new atom.
Is an electron in a hydrogen atom the same as an electron in a uranium atom?
yes
What is the name of the part of the atom that has a negative charge?
The part of the atom that has a negative charge is the electron. Electrons are located in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus of an atom and contribute to the atom's overall negative charge.
What happens when an electron is added to an atom it will acquire?
when an electron is added to an atom, the atom will acquire a negative charge.
What is it when you add or subtract an electron to an atom?
When you add an electron to an atom, the atom becomes negatively charged and is called an anion. When you subtract an electron from an atom, the atom becomes positively charged and is called a cation.
