The nature of electricity is not really discovered. It is claimed that the electric charges are electrons.
This hypothesis created the ambiguity of the duality nature of electrons, as electrons are particles and not charges.
As a better approach, it is better to postulate the electron as a charged particle or a particle that has a charge.
So, what is the charge? The charge can be simply postulated as a form of energy that has potential.
So, duality property is a direct result of claiming the electrons are charges as the charges are waves.
It is similar to the heat. The heat is a form of energy that has a temperature.
The heat radiation, as primary form of heat, is in the form of electromagnetic waves.
Similarly, the electric charge is a form of electromagnetic waves that has an electric potential.
In other words, the flow of charges is a flow of ionized electromagnetic waves.
However, the magnetic flux is not defined in a direct manner up to now.
According to the similarity between the laws characterizing the magnetic flux, heat flux and electric current, t is possible to define also the magnetic flux as a flow of magnetized electromagnetic waves that have magnetic potential.
These conclusions were derived through an entropy approach to the duality confusion.

Does the nucleus of an atom has a positive electric charge?
true its positive
What has to be true about the protons and the electrons on an atom that is neutrral?
In any atom,there are protons, neutrons and electrons. As the name would suggest, neutrons carry no charge. Protons carry a positive charge and electrons carry a negative charge. So in an atom that has no charge there has to be an equal number of protons and electrons.
Is the following sentence true or false An atom that loses electrons has a negative charge?
False. It an Atom is losing electrons, the negative charge is being removed. The resulting charge of the Atom is positive. Think of it this way, when you add the two pieces, do you get the same thing you started with? Neutral Atom (0) - Electron (-) = Positive Atom (+) in reverse Positive Atom (+) + Electron (-) = Neutral Atom (0)
Is it true or false that an alpha particle has a double positive charge because it is a helium atom that has lost two electrons?
It is true
What changes the charge of the atom?
what changes the charge of the atom
What is true of?
It is a sub particle of an atom. It has a + charge on it.
If an atom has no charge what is true about its protons and neutrons?
it isattee
Does the nucleus of an atom has a positive electric charge?
true its positive
What must be true of the number of protons and the number of electrons in an atom if the atom has no charge?
The numbers of protons and of electrons in the atom must be the same.

Is it true that the negatively charged particles of an atom are nuetrons?
No. The negatively charged particles of an atom are called electrons. Neutrons have a neutral charge.
Is it true or false that an alpha particle has a double positive charge because it is a helium atom that has lost two electrons?
It is true
When the protons and electrons have the same number this means that the atom is overall charge neutral?
yes this is true
What changes the charge of the atom?
what changes the charge of the atom
When an atom loses electrons its charge become negative true or false?
False. When an atom loses electrons, its charge becomes positive since electrons have negative charges. Compare it to: 0 - -1 = 1
The overall charge of an atom is negative if the number of electrons is less than the number of protons?
No, the opposite is true.
