If an atom losses an electron it will be positive and called a what?
It will be called as positron.
What happens when a atom losses a electron?
The neutral atom become an ion (cation) with the charge +1.
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
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?

What soes an atom become when it losses or get an electron?

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.
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.
What is the size of an atom versus an electron?
an atom is larger than an electron
