An ion is both positively and negatively charged.
No. Protons are positively charged.
No, they become positively charged, because electrons carry a negative charge, and by losing an electron they lose one of the charges that previously balanced out the positive charges from the protons, becoming a positively charged ion.
Positively charged ions, or cations, are atoms that have lost electrons, resulting in a net positive charge. Negatively charged ions, or anions, are atoms that have gained electrons, leading to a net negative charge. These charged ions are formed through the process of ionization.
Protons are found in the nucleus of all atoms and are positively charged.
No, ions are.
Atoms are neutrally, positively, or negatively charged.
One! An atom is not made up of other atoms, but has a nucleus of a positively-charged proton and a neutrally-charged neutron. It is surrounded by a network of positively-charged particles called electrons. (sorry, NEGATIVELY charged particles called electrons!)
Sodium has 11 positively charged protons. (All atoms have positively charged protons, though they differ in hte number of protons).
Protons are the positively charged particles found in the nucleus of an atom.
An atom becomes a positively charged ion when it loses one or more electrons.
They lose electrons.
atoms are made up of positively charged protons, negatively charged electrons and electrically neutral neutrons
