Ions
What else can I help you with?
What are charged atoms if elements that have an unequal number of protons and electrons?
These substances are called ions.
What are atoms of elements that have an unequal number of protons an electrons?
Ions.
What are changed atoms of elements that have an unequal number of protons and electrons?
Ions are changed atoms of elements that have an unequal number of protons and electrons. This imbalance gives the ion a net electric charge, either positive (if there are more protons) or negative (if there are more electrons).
What is an object that is positively charge?
If an object has an unequal number of protons and electrons, then the object becomes electrically charged. An object that is positively charged has more protons than electrons.
How are the charges of subatomic particles significant?
Protons are positively charged; the number of protons equal the atomic number. They are the identifiers of chemical elements. Electrons are negatively charged an they are very important for chemistry.
Ions are charged particles. Therefore ions must always have an unequal number of?
Ions are charged particles therefore ions must always have an unequal number of Protons and Electrons. Since the amount of protons, in general, can't change, then the amount of charge is controlled by how much electrons are present. E.g., If there is 7 protons and 7 electrons, the charge is 0 as the protons cancelled out the electrons. However if it gained 3 electrons, it would be 7 protons and 10 electrons and therefore have a charge of -3 (Because electrons are negatively charged)
When the proton number and electron number are unequal the atom or molecule what?
When the proton number and electron number are unequal, the atom or molecule becomes an ion. If there are more protons than electrons, it becomes a positively charged cation. If there are more electrons than protons, it becomes a negatively charged anion.
Do ions have an unequal number of protons?
yes it does
What are charged atoms of elements that have a unique number of protons and electrons?
Each atom of an element has the same number of protons which is unique for that particular element ( = atom number in the periodic system)
What can be said about the number of protons and electrons in an atom Why?
In a neutral atom, the number of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged) is the same. This is because the positive charge from protons is balanced by the negative charge from electrons, resulting in a neutral atom.
Which has the same number of which type of subatomic particle?
All elements have the same number of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons to maintain electrical / charge neutrality
What is the particle called that has an unequal number of protons and electrons called?
An ion is a particle that has an unequal number of protons and electrons, resulting in a net positive or negative charge.
