The term 'neutral charge' is meaningless, if an atom is neutral then it has no charge if it has charge then it can not be neutral.
'Neutral' means that it will not be deflected in an elecromagnetic field. Particles inside atoms are either electrically neutral (neutrons) or are 'charged' (protons and electrons). being charged means that they would be affected by an electrical field. If an electrical field is applied to either protons and electrons, they are deflected in opposite directions. Therefore protons and electrons have opposite charges. The convention is that protons have a '+' charge, and the electrons a '-' charge, although any suitable description (up/down, black/white, left/ght etc) could be used as long as one description was the opposite of the other. All atoms are neutral, as they have the same number of + protons as - electrons in them. If an atom loses or gains one or more electrons it becomes iteslf charged and is then known as an 'ion'.
What else can I help you with?
What does the word neutral mean for the kinds of charge an atom has?
An atom that has a neutral charge is one with which the quantity of electrons is equal to the atomic number.
What will be the charge of a neutral atom?
A neutral atom will have a charge of ZERO
What is the small particle of an atom which carries a neutral charge?
I think you mean a neutron. We don't say 'a neutral charge', but rather that it has no charge.
What is aluminum overall charge of an atom?
The overall charge of an aluminum atom is neutral, as it has an equal number of protons (positive charge) and electrons (negative charge). A neutral atom of aluminum has 13 protons and 13 electrons.
Do a neutral atom have a charge?
It is because there is an equal amount of positive and negative charge to produce a neutral charge. Just the presence of neutrons does not make the atom neutral. An atom will lose its neutral charge if it loses or gains electrons and becomes an ion
What is the charge off a neutral atom?
neutral
What is the charge of an object that has an equal number of protons and the electrons?
Assuming you mean the charge of an atom with equal numbers of protons and electrons, the charge of the atom would be zero/neutral.
Is the charge on a neutral chlorine atom zero?
Yes, the charge on a neutral chlorine atom is zero. In its neutral state, a chlorine atom has equal numbers of protons and electrons, resulting in no overall charge.
How do electrons an portons make a neutral charge an neutron result in a neutral charged atom?
An atom that has an equal number of protons and electrons will be neutral and have no charge.
What is the general overall charge of an atom?
A neutral atom hasn't an electrical charge.
When there is an equal number of electrons and protons in an atom what is the charge?
The atom is neutral. There is no charge.
When electron is added to unipositive ion we get?
When an electron is added to a unipositive ion, the resulting atom gains a negative charge and becomes a neutral atom. The electron neutralizes the positive charge of the ion, balancing the overall charge of the atom.
