An atom with a charge (either positive or negative) is called an "ion." An ion with a positive charge is called a "cation" and an ion with a negative charge is called an "anion ."
This atom is an ion (anion or cation).
An ion.
ion
There is no net electrical charge on an "unreacted" atom.
This atom become a cation with the electrical charge +2.
Atomic particles with no charge are neutrons, and neutrinos.
A neutral atom differs in charge from a positive or negative ion.
The proton is the particle that has a positive charge. The neutron is the particle that has a neutral charge. both of these reside in the nucleus of an atom.
An atom with an electrical charge is called an ion.
An atom that carries an electrical charge because it has gained or lost electrons is called an "ion". An atom that has gained one or more electrons, and has a negative electrical charge, is called an "anion". An atom that has lost one or more electrons, and has a positive electrical charge, is called a "cation". The term "ion" is used to refer to both cations and anions collectively or non-specifically.
Having a charge it is called an ION. No charge means: same number of protons and electrons.
A particle with a negative electrical charge is called an electron.
It is called an ion.
If there is an imbalance in the numbers of protons in electrons, then yes, an atom would have electrical charge.
An atom does not have an electrical charge. Atoms have equal numbers of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons. If there are not equal numbers of protons (+1) and electrons (-1) then it is not called an atom, it is called an ion.
This is called an ion.
A neutral atom hasn't an electrical charge.
-1 charge
Neutron .
There is no net electrical charge on an "unreacted" atom.
