What is the electric charge of a electron?
The electric charge of an electron is -1.602 x 10^-19 coulombs. This negative charge is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to the charge of a proton.
What is the charge of electrons in an atom?
The charge of electrons in an atom is negative, with a magnitude of -1. This negative charge is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to the positive charge of protons in the nucleus, which helps maintain the overall neutrality of the atom.
Positive charge in an atom symbol?
a positive sign in an atom symbol denotes an ion, for example, Fe2+
How does the presence of an electric charge affect the surrounding electric field in the context of physics?
The presence of an electric charge creates an electric field around it. This electric field exerts a force on other charged objects in the surrounding area. The strength and direction of the electric field depend on the magnitude and sign of the charge.
The electric charge of a photon is how many times stronger the charge of an electron?
The electric charges of the proton and electron are equal in magnitude (size, strength), and opposite in sign.
Is the charge on the electrons far greater than the positive charge in the atom?
Electrons have an electric charge of −1.602 × 10−19 C,[2] which is used as a standard unit of elementary charge for subatomic particles. Within the limits of experimental accuracy, the electron charge is identical to the charge of a proton, but with the opposite sign.[48] As the symbol e is used for the constant of electrical charge, the electron is commonly symbolized by e−, where the minus sign indicates the negative charge.[2] This is what I found in Wikipedia. This would say that your answer sould be no.

What causes an atom to have a negative charge?
An atom can be negatively charged if it has an extra electron.An atom can be negatively charged if it has an extra electron.An atom can be negatively charged if it has an extra electron.An atom can be negatively charged if it has an extra electron.
Do the symbol Na represents a sodium atom that has lost an electrons?
No. Na is the chemical sign for any sodium atom. The sign for ^^ is Na+1. No, I didn't make a mistake with the + or -. The + is for the charge. The electron has -1 charge, and 0-(-1)=1 (or +1). So the charge of a sodium atom with one lost electron is +1.
What can you determine from an electric field vector at one point?
From an electric field vector at one point, you can determine the direction of the electrostatic force on a test charge of known sign at that point. You can also determine the magnitude of the electrostatic force exerted per unit charge on a test charge at that point.
Why do the protons and electrons have to be equal in an atom?
Actually I don't understand what actually question is? Atom has three fundamental parts: Electron, Proton, Neutron. Each atom has equal number of these items. Electrons are negatively charged particles, and Protons are positively charged particles. Neutrons don't carry any charge. Neutrons & Protons sit in the nucleus (center) of an atom, whereas electrons revovle around the nucleus in the orbits. By nature atom has no net charge.
Could you show me a diagram that shows a negative charge?
I'm unable to provide diagrams. However, a negative charge is typically denoted by an "−" sign next to the charge symbol, such as "−Q" for an electron with charge Q. In physics equations, the negative sign indicates the charge's direction or sign.
