Common charge for the element potassium?
Positive
Do nuclei have a positive or negative charge?
Atomic nuclei have positive electrical charges. The size of the charge depends upon the element in question.
Who discovered that each element has a unique positive charge?
Henry Moseley
Can an electric charge be positive?
When a process of oxidation takes place the element acquires a unit positive charge. The number of protons are more than the number of electrons in an element which gives the element its positive charge as the protons have a positive charge.
What determines the overall charge of an element if an electron charge is negative and a proton has a positive charge?
The sum of the number of protons minus the number of electrons.
What do protrons do for element?
they provide a positive charge for the element
An ion is an element that has a what charge?
An ion is an atom of any element that either has a positive or negative charge.
Common charge for the element potassium?
Positive
Is element Na positive or negative?
No element on its own has a charge. However, in all of its compounds sodium forms a positive ion.
Do nuclei have a positive or negative charge?
Atomic nuclei have positive electrical charges. The size of the charge depends upon the element in question.
What is the part of an element that has a positive charge?
Proton-positiveElectron-negativeneutron- neutral
Who discovered that each element has a unique positive charge?
Henry Moseley
What is the hharge of a proton in an element?
The Proton carries a Positive charge. An Electron has a Negative charge, and a Neutron has no charge … it's Neutral.
What is an ionic number?
The ionic number is the positive or negetive charge an element has, such as Lithium has an ionic charge of +1.
What does a number of protons for an element mean?
The atomic number number of an element, and the magnitude of the positive electrical charge on a nucleus of the atoms of the element.
Why does a element have a plus 2 charge?
An element you have a +2 charge It is had lost electrons. It would have to lose the same number of electrons that its positive charge is. So it would have lost 2 electrons.
What subatomic particle has a positive charge and identifies an element by its atomic number?
The proton.
