Asked in Chemistry
When do you call an atom a neutral atom?
Atoms ARE neutral atoms!! IONS are atoms with a charge - but
they are not even called atoms!
Asked in Chemistry
What do atoms do that alters there overall neutral charge?
Atoms either gain or lose electrons to change their overall
neutral charge.
Asked in Physics, Chemistry, Atoms and Atomic Structure
Neutral atoms have?
Neutral atoms have the same amount of protons and electrons.
Electrons have a negative charge and protons have a positive
charge. If you have the same amount, the atom will be neutral.
Asked in Chemistry
Why are atoms neutral in charge?
Protons from the atomic nucleus are neutralized by the electrons
and the atom is neutral.

How is the net charge of an atom produced?
Atoms are neutral in charge
Asked in Inventions, Atoms and Atomic Structure
Atoms that have a charge are called?
Atoms that have charge are called ions. Ions can have a
positive,neutral, or negative charge. If an ion is in a neutral
atom is loses one or more electrons.
Asked in Physics, Chemistry, Atoms and Atomic Structure
What is an atom with a neutral charge?
Most atoms in their ground state have a neutral charge. An atom
with a non-neutral charge is an ion. There isn't a specific word
for an atom that is neutral.
Asked in Science, Physics, Chemistry
Do all atoms have an electric charge?
All atoms have a net zero charge because all atoms have protons
(+ charge),
neutrons(neutral no charge) and electrons(- charge). But when we
put atoms into a solution it becomes ions (atoms with + charge and
- charge).
Asked in Chemistry, Atoms and Atomic Structure
Are atoms positivly charged?
No, atoms are neutral; they carry not net charge.
Asked in Science, Chemistry, Atoms and Atomic Structure
What are electrical neutral atoms?
atoms that don't have a positive or negative charge on them
Asked in Atoms and Atomic Structure
Which kind of atom has an electrical charge?
Atoms are generally electrically neutral as they have the same
number of protons and neutrons.Ions have charges.
Asked in Chemistry, Periodic Table, Atoms and Atomic Structure
What are some exmple on the periodic table that are neutral atoms?
All the atoms are neutral. Only ions have an electrical
charge.
Asked in Physics, Atoms and Atomic Structure
How are atoms that are neutral in charge?
Atoms that are neutral in charge have the same quantity of
protons and electrons. Negative ions have extra electrons, and
positive ions are missing electrons.
Asked in Chemistry
Are atoms neutral and don't have a charge?
A "normal" atom has not an electrical charge; ions have a
charge.
Asked in Physics, Chemistry, Atoms and Atomic Structure, The Difference Between
How are atoms different from molecules?
Atoms consist of electrons (negative charge), protons (positive
charge), and neutrons (neutral charge), while molecules consist of
atoms.
