What kind of charge does an electron in an atom have?
Negative
What kind of charge does an electron a atom have?
negative
An atom with an additional election has what kind of charge?
An atom with an additional electron has a negative charge. By gaining an electron, the atom has more negatively charged particles (electrons) than positively charged particles (protons), resulting in an overall negative charge.
What kind of charge would a sodium atom have if it lost one electron?
Sodium become a cation (positive charge) - Na+.
What kind of charge does an atom gain when it receives an electron?
Well an electron is negative so negative i guess But The atom is always neutral because the number of protons = electons
What kind of charge does an atom with 1 proton in its nucleus and 1 electron outside its nucleus have?
neutral
What kind of charge do you get when you remove an electron from an atom?
Atoms lose electrons to form positively charged cations.
What kind of atom tends to have one electron?
The hydrogen atom has 1 electron.
What kind of charge does an electron possess?
An electron possesses a negative charge.
What kind of charge does the electron charge have?
negative
What kind of charge does an electron have when it gains or loses electrons?
Remember- Pro means + Therefore, a proton has a + charge, an electron has a - charge, and neutrons (neutral) have no charge. Normally an atom has an even number of protons and electrons, and can have any number of neutrons and still be the same element. When you add electrons, you end up with a slight negative charge because there are more negatively charged particles than positive ones. When you remove electrons, you get a slight positive charge, because there are now more positive particles than negative ones. This usually occurs as a result of polar covalent bonds. A atom with a slight charge in either direction is called an ion. A negative ion is a anion, while a positive ion is a cation.
What kind of electric of charge does an atom have?
That depends on the number of protons and electrons present. One electron has a charge of minus one. A proton has a charge of plus one. Add charges to arrive at the charge of the atom total. Example: an H+ ion consists of a single proton, and has no electrons. Its charge therefore is +1.
