What is a good comparison of the charges of an electron and the charges of a proton?
They are equal in magnitude but opposite in charge.
Particle with no electric charge?
A neutron.The proton is positively charged, the electron is negatively charged and the neutron has no charge.
What is similar to an electron and has positive charge?
Nothing is identical to an electron as electrons obey the Pauli exclusion principle and they are all different. == Another electron. All electrons have the same elemental structure. Certainly when we evaluate them in "small regions" of space, their momentum is uncertain. But intrinsically, all electrons are alike. And somewhere there is footage of Murray Gell-Mann saying exactly that. He has a pretty good grip on stuff like this. The Nobel Prize he won in Physics is just icing on the cake.
Why is H also an accepted symbol for a proton?
H is an accepted symbol for a proton because a proton is the nucleus of a hydrogen atom. Since hydrogen atoms consist of just one proton and no neutrons, the symbol H is used to denote both the element hydrogen and a single proton.
When a hydrogen ion separates from a water molecule?
was the question, when DOES a hydrogen ion seperate from a water molecule? a: when an electric charge is present, when (im not 100% about the chemical) pottassium nitrate and aluminum are presented in abundance. i think thats about it. i dont personally have a lot of knowledge about this but i spent a good deal of time making hydrogen cell generators for gas motors and what i told you is all you really need to know to do that!

What produces hydrogen atoms?
A Hydrogen atom is made up of a proton and a electron... and that's about it. They aren't really produced, they just form. But as they only have the one electron when there is space for two (one proton and two electrons would form a Helium atom), they have a positive charge and are very good for reacting with other elements, particularly those carrying a negative charge.
What is the particle which is opposite in charge to the electron?
The particle that has the opposite charge of an electron is the proton. The electron has a charge of -1 while the proton has a charge of +1. (Though they have equal - but opposite - charges, the proton is about 1836 times more massive than the electron.) It might be worth mentioning that the antiparticle of the electron, the positron, also has a charge of +1. And it (the positron or antielectron) has a mass identical to the electron's. (An antielectron, the positron, will combine with an electron when the pair are at low energy in an annhilation event. Both particles will have their masses converted into energy.)
What is electron donor?
A proton donor is a molecule that donates it's protons to other molecules.

Are acids proton acceptors?
Protons are good for cars, bad for breathing which we need electrons and well neutrons even though neutrons are pretty much neutral with no charge. The electrons (negative) is what we need to support which everywhere you go to a city, town etc, you end up seeing pollution everywhere. The pollution is causing to eliminate the negative ions which we need the most. The solution, get yourself an ionizer, I was told that it works like wonders!
When an atom loses an electron what happens to the atoms charge?
When an atom loses an electron, it becomes positively charged because it now has more protons than electrons. The loss of a negatively charged electron leaves behind a positively charged ion.
Why is H also an accepted symbol for a proton?

What is the electric force between a proton and an electron?
Go to the top of page 6 in unit 4 and you will see an example that almost answers the tma question. Just flip the two force laws over and plug in the values on the back of the book. Remember, on the back of the book it states the electric charge of a proton so stick a minus sign in front and you have the electric charge of the electron.

What are atoms composed?
That is a good question. Scientists are still not completely sure what the atom is made of, however we do know about three parts right now. They are the proton (positive charge), neutron (neutral charge), and electron (negative charge). The proton attracts the electrons, causing them to orbit. There can be more neutrons than protons but not less. The neutrons keep the positively charged protons from repelling each other. Scientists do not know what causes a proton to have different properties than a neutron. They can change charges. (proton can become neutron and vice-versa)
