What happens to a neutral atom that accepts one electron?
The neutral atom then takes on a negative charge because the incoming electron has a negetive charge.
What is the charge of electrons in an atom?
The charge of electrons in an atom is negative, with a magnitude of -1. This negative charge is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to the positive charge of protons in the nucleus, which helps maintain the overall neutrality of the atom.
What happens when an electron is added to an atom it will acquire?
when an electron is added to an atom, the atom will acquire a negative charge.
What happens to the charge plus or - of an atom when it gains electron?
An electron has a negative charge of 1.6E-19 Coulombs. This will subtract from the net charge of an atom, so the net charge will be less, assuming that a negative charge is less than a positive charge.
What happenes to the charge of and atom when it gains electrons?
when atoms gain electrons they acquire negative charge
Is an atom a negative charge or a positive charge?
An atom with positive charge is cation.An atom with negative charge is anion.
What describes what happens when an atom becomes an ion with a two negative charge?
This atom gain two electrons and become an anion.
What is the negative charged atom?
Electron is a negative charge in atom
In an atom the particles with a negative charge are called what?
a particle with a negative charge in an atom is an electron
What is the parcticle in an atom that has a negative charge?
The electron has a negative charge.
How does an atom change to a negatively charged ion what happens to the subatomic partieles?
An atom gains a negative charge by gaining extra electrons. When this happens, the atom becomes an ion. The number of protons in the nucleus remains the same, but the number of electrons increases, leading to an overall negative charge.
What is the name of the part of the atom that has a negative charge?
The part of the atom that has a negative charge is the electron. Electrons are located in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus of an atom and contribute to the atom's overall negative charge.
