the charge is not zero
The overall charge on the compound HF is zero.
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.
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.
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.
The protons in an atom have a positive charge and the electrons in an atom have a negative charge and these balance each other. Neutrons have no charge so they do not factor into it. It would be like adding positive 4(Protons) and negative 4(Electrons). -4+4=0 The zero represents your "no overall charge".
Zero
Zero
Generally, the overall charge for a compound is zero.
The overall charge on the compound HF is zero.
As the tern neutral might imply, the overall charge of a neutral atomis zero.
its always zero.
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.
The overall charge for a purchase is the cost including the product, tax, shipping, and any other fees or services.
zero .. such an atom is neutral. No net charge
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.
Mg as an element is zero oxygen as an element is likewise zero Mg as an ion +2 Oxgen as an ion -2 MgO compound net zero
It has the same amount of anions and cations.
