A charged atom is?
A charged atom is an ion. An atom that has lost one or more electrons becomes a positively charged ion called a cation. An atom that has gained one or more electrons becomes a negatively charged ion called an anion.

When a atom loses or gains electrons it becomes an?
ION A positively (+) charged ion is named a CATION A negatively (-) charged ion is named an ANION NB When an atom becomes a charged species it is no longer an atom, but an ION . An atom has a neutral charge.
What is an electrically charged atom or molecule called?
An electrically charged atom or molecule is called an ion. An ion can be either positively charged (cation) or negatively charged (anion), depending on the number of electrons it has relative to its number of protons.
What is a atom that is charged called?

The atom that has gained or lost electrons is called an ion?
Correct, an ion is an atom or molecule that has gained or lost electrons, giving it a positive or negative charge. A positively charged ion is called a cation, and a negatively charged ion is called an anion.
What is the process called that changes a neutral atom into an electrically charged atom?
Ionization. An electrically charged atom is called an ion. Positively charged ions are called cations, and negatively charged atoms are called anions.
What type of atom is formed when an electron is gained or lost by a neutral atom?
NO!!! Atom is formed by the gain/loss of electrons. When an atom gain/loses electrons it is an ION NOT an atom. NB A positively (+) charged ion is a CATION A negatively (-) charged ion is an ANION .
