How are atoms and ions connected?
Atoms are neutral particles. Ions are charged atoms.
Do neutral atoms have a positive or negative charge?
No..... They are called neutral for a reason. But neutral atoms can have electrons added and removed making the atom positive or negative. And neutral atoms are still affected by charged atoms due to reason in depth but to sum up the long explanation of the affect neutral atoms are attracted to charged atoms. Just a side note.... how many of you love Leo Howard? Am I right?
Why was Dalton's model of the atom changed after Thomson's experiment?
John Dalton's atomic theory indicated that atoms were indivisible spheres. When JJ Thomson did his work with cathode ray tubes, he discovered that atoms contain electrons, which meant that the atom is not indivisible, that there are smaller particles within.
Who discovered that atoms small hard particles?
Democritus
What do we call the neutral part of atoms?
Particles in an atoms nucleus which do not have electric charge are Neutrons.
How Can Atoms Be Neutral if they are made up of changed particles?
The Atom is neutral because the charged particles sum to zero,m thus neutral. The positive charges are in the nucleus and the negative particles are the electrons. The sum is zero and the atom is neutral.
Who discovered atoms can form charged particles called ions?
Michael Faraday discovered this in 1831.
What is electronically neutral nuclear particle?
Neutrons are electrically neutral particles present in atoms except in hydrogen-1 isotope.
What are the particles found in the nucleus of all atoms?
Protons which are positively charged and neutrons which are neutral.
What is the neutral particle found when atoms share electrons?
The neutral sub-atomic particles in an atom are neutrons and they are found inside the nucleus.
How are can be atoms neutral if they contain charged particles?
the no of positive charges are equal to negative charges (protons = electrons) in any neutral atom.
What two Particles make up Atoms nucleus?
proton, neutrons
