What is an atom or group of atoms that has become electrically changed?
When an atom or group of atoms becomes electrically charged, it is referred to as an ion. If it has a positive charge (+) it is called a cation, and if it has a negative charge (-), it is called an anion.
What is the name given to an atom that has become charged?
It depends, a proton if is is positively charged ( +) electron if it is negatively charged ( - )
Is it true that if an atom has an equal number of protons and electrons the rentire atomis electrically neutral?
Yes, if an atom contains equal numbers of protons and electrons, the atom is described as being electrically neutral. If an atom has a different amount of protons and electrons it is electrically charged, and is called an ion, rather than an atom.
What is the process called that changes a neutral atom into an electrically charged atom?
Ionization. An electrically charged atom is called an ion. Positively charged ions are called cations, and negatively charged atoms are called anions.
