A charged atom is called an ion.If it has more protons then electrons, it has a positive charge.If it has more electrons than protons, it has a negative charge.
An atom with positive charge is cation.An atom with negative charge is anion.
The atom may gain or lose an electron either making it positive or negative.
An ion is an atom of any element that either has a positive or negative charge.
Atoms are neutral. Ions can be charged, either positive or negative.
An ion is an atom with a positive or negative charge.
Positive charge: cationNegative charge: anion
The charge of a nucleus is positive, as it contains protons which have a positive charge. The charge of an atom overall is neutral, as the number of protons (positive charge) is equal to the number of electrons (negative charge) in a neutral atom.
Negative: The negative part of an atom is the electrons which have a negative charge and orbit around the nucleus. Positive: The positive part of an atom is the nucleus which contains protons with a positive charge.
Positive
electrons = negative charge protons = positive charge neutrons = neutral charge
no. electrons have negative charge. protons have positive charge
