The number of protons and electrons in the atom.
If the number of protons = number of electrons, it is electrically neutral.
If number of protons > number of electrons, it is positively charged.
If number of protons < number of electrons, it is negatively charged.
overall charge
The valence electrons
Proton
The number of protons.
No. elements and all other mater will normally have no charge.
atomic mass
The number of electrons determines an element's position.
Elements that have a net positive charge are called cations, while elements with a net negative charge are called anions.
There's no charge within the atom of each group since there is a same number of electrons (negatively charged) and protons ( positively charged). The charge does not change unless after ionic bonding. The atomic charge changes depending on the reaction.
Yes
The proton.
An element's nuclear charge is the positive charge located in the nucleus of an atom, equal to the number of protons in the atom. It determines the element's position in the periodic table and plays a significant role in determining the atom's chemical properties and reactivity.
