Is oxygen atom has an overall negative charge with the hydrogen atoms having an overall positive charge?

All atoms have the same overall charge with the exception of ionization (electrons are lost or gained). since there are the same amount of protons and electrons in an atom, the negative and positive cancel each other out.

Which water molecule has a partial positive charge?
hydrogen is partially positive and oxygen is partially negative so your answer is oxygen
A substance has 34 positive charges and 34 negative charges what is the overall charge?
The overall charge is neutral.
Why is the overall charge of a water molecule 0?
The reason why the overall charge of a water molecule is zero is because the number of positive hydrogen ions and the number of negative hydroxide ions are equal, so they cancel each other out.
What is an atoms overall electrical charge?
Neutral. An atom has as many negative electrons in its shells as there are positive protons in its nucleus. Thus overall the positive and negative charges are balanced out. Should an atom gain or lose an electron it will then become an 'Ion' which will have an overall negative or positive (respectively) charge.
How did Thomson determine that there was also positive charges found in atoms?
He knew there were electrons which have negative charges, but the overall charge of the atom was zero. There had to be positive atoms for this to be true, because negative and positive charges cancel each other out in order for the overall charge to be zero.
Which water molecule has a partial positive charge?
hydrogen is partially positive and oxygen is partially negative so your answer is oxygen
Does xylene cyanol have a positive or negative charge?
It has an overall negative charge :)
Can a positively charge hydrogen ends of water molecules attract chloride ions?
chloride ions have a negative charge... hydrogen ions have a positive charge... positive and negative means attraction

What contains a positive charge hydrogen-ions hydroxide-ions electrons or neutrons?
Hydrogen ions are H+Hydroxide ions are OH-neutrons are written n and have no chargeelectrons are written e- and have a negative charge.So only hydrogen ions, H+, has a positive charge.
What is positive about NH3 Nitrogen has a strong positive charge hydrogen is negative or they are covalently bonded?
they are covalently bonded

When an atom has one or more extra electrons it will have a positive charge?
No. Electrons possess a negative charge, therefore an atom with an excess of electrons will have an overall negative charge.
What is the overall charge of an ionic compound?
it is always equal to zero.The overall charge of a formula unit for an ionic compound is zero. The numbers of positive and negative ions are such that the sum of the positive charges and the negative charges is zero.
Which kind of eletrical charge is found on a hydrogen atom of a polar water molecule?
a positive charge caused by a covalent bond with oxygen
