Which is a neutural charge?
Neutron has no charge. It is considered as neutral charge.
How many protons does a neutural atom of chlorine have?
An atom of chlorine has 17 protons.
When an atom in no longer neutral it exists with a charge an atom that has a charge is called a?
When an atom is no longer neutral and has gained or lost electrons, it is called an ion. An atom that has gained electrons will have a negative charge (an anion), while an atom that has lost electrons will have a positive charge (a cation).
When an atom is no longer neutral it exists with a charge. An atom that has a charge is called a .?
An ion. if the charge is positive, it is know as a cation and if the charge is negative , it is known as an anion.
When an atom is no longer neutral, it exists with a charge. An atom that has a charge is called a _______.?
An ion. if the charge is positive, it is know as a cation and if the charge is negative , it is known as an anion.
Positive charged subatomic particle?
A positively charged subatomic particle is a proton. Protons are found in the nucleus of an atom and have a charge of +1. They contribute to the overall positive charge of the nucleus and help hold the atom together.
What is an atom called when it no longer has a neutral charge?
An atom with no electric charge will be called a neutral atom. In a neutral atom, there is a balance of charges, and the number of protons will be equal to the number of electrons. It's really that simple. Compare this to atoms that have an imbalance of charges. These atoms are called ions.
What is the overall charge on any atom?
An atom is neutral, and therefore has an overall charge of zero. If an atom either loses or gains electrons through a chemical reaction, or loses protons through radioactive decay, so that it then has an overall charge, it is no longer considered to be an atom but is classified as an ion.
What can be said about the number of protons and electrons in an atom Why?
In a neutral atom, the number of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged) is the same. This is because the positive charge from protons is balanced by the negative charge from electrons, resulting in a neutral atom.
What changes the charge of the atom?
what changes the charge of the atom
What is an atom that is no longer neutral?
An atom that is no longer neutral has gained or lost electrons, resulting in a net positive or negative charge. A positively charged atom is called a cation, while a negatively charged atom is called an anion. These charged atoms are called ions.
How does an atom keep its charge balanced?
An atom contains an equal amount of positively charged particles (protons) and negatively charged particles (electrons). If a atom gains or loses electrons it then gains a charge and is no longer known as an atom; it becomes an ion.
