In a neutral atom, the charge on the electron cloud is balanced by the carge on the atom's nucleus. The nucleus has a positive charge proportional to the number of protons in it. This attracts and holds the negatively charged electrons in the electron cloud. And in a neutral atom (not an ion), there will be as many electrons in the electron cloud as protons in the nucleus. The charges will balance.
The electron cloud will have negatively charged electrons.
it holds the electrons in
The charge of an electron cloud is negative. The electron cloud is made up of electrons, and the electrons are negatively charged. The electron cloud will have a negative charge as well.
The charge on an electron is negative (it's -1), and electrons in an atom are found in orbitals (or Fermi energy levels) in the electron cloud far from the nucleus.
Yes - in any atom, you will find protons (+ charge) and neutrons (neutral or 0 charge) in the atom's nucleus. You will find the electrons (- charge) outside the nucleus in the electron cloud.
Proton = positive charge Neutron = neutral charge Electron = negative charge Please note that the basic parts of an atom do not include only the protons, neutrons and electrons. The basic parts are the nucleus and electron cloud. the protons and neutrons are essentially in the nucleus and the electrons are in the cloud surrounding the nucleus
The electron, the negatively charged particle in an atom, is located in the electron cloud, as opposed to the proton and neutron, located in the nucleus.
The charge of an electron cloud is negative. The electron cloud is made up of electrons, and the electrons are negatively charged. The electron cloud will have a negative charge as well.
The charge on an electron is negative (it's -1), and electrons in an atom are found in orbitals (or Fermi energy levels) in the electron cloud far from the nucleus.
Every electron has a charge of minus one. If a neutral atom acquires an additional electron, then it also acquires the charge of that electron, and will have a net charge of minus one.
It is called an electron. An electron is one of the subatomic particles in an atom. A proton has a positive charge. A neutron has a negative charge. An electron has a negative charge. The electron floats around the nucleus of the atom in the electron cloud. The nucleus is made up of protons and electrons.
Yes - in any atom, you will find protons (+ charge) and neutrons (neutral or 0 charge) in the atom's nucleus. You will find the electrons (- charge) outside the nucleus in the electron cloud.
Protons in the nucleus each have a positive charge, and electrons, surrounding the nucleus in the electron cloud, have a negative charge.

The electrons of an atom carry a negative charge. the electron cloud which is around the nucleus containing the electrons For more information, see Related links below.
An atom does not have an overall electrical charge, because the positive charges in the nucleus are balanced by the negative charges in the electron cloud around the nucleus. When an atom loses or gains an electron, it is called an "ion".
The atom is made up of a nucleus and an electron cloud. The nucleus contain protons (positive particles, p+) and neutrons (particles of no charge, n0). The electron cloud is made up of orbiting electron which possess a negative charge (e-).
Proton = positive charge Neutron = neutral charge Electron = negative charge Please note that the basic parts of an atom do not include only the protons, neutrons and electrons. The basic parts are the nucleus and electron cloud. the protons and neutrons are essentially in the nucleus and the electrons are in the cloud surrounding the nucleus
