What is the part of the atom witch carries an electric charge?
Protons have a positive charge. Electrons have a negative charge.
What is the part of the of atom carries no electric charge?
The neutrons are the part of the atom that carry no electric charge. They are found in the nucleus. the protons carry a positive charge and the electrons carry a 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.
An atom differs in electric charge from what?
A neutral atom differs in charge from a positive or negative ion.
What is the part of the atom that carries no electric charge?
The neutrons are the part of the atom that carry no electric charge. They are found in the nucleus. the protons carry a positive charge and the electrons carry a negative charge.
What is is an atom with an electric charge?
An atom with an electric charge is called an ion. An ion is the result of an imbalance in the number of protons and electrons. If there is more protons than electrons then your atom will have a positive charge. If more electons then it will have a negative charge.
Why do atoms have no electric change?
Because the positive charge of the protons in an atom are cancelled out by the negative charges of the electrons in the atom.
An atom with an electric charge?
An atom with an electric charge is termed an ion. Ions can have either a positive (cation) or negative (anion) charge. Common examples include Cl-, Na+, Mg2+ and O2-
What is the electric charge of each particle in an atom?
Proton: positive Electron: negative Neutron: neutral
Explanation for rutheford's nuclear atom model?
Each atom has a charged center (nuclei) with the positive electric charge and electron(s) rotates around this center with the negative electric charge.
