How do scientist describe atoms?

Scientists describe atoms as the basic building blocks of matter that make up everything in the universe. Atoms are composed of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, surrounded by electrons in orbit. The properties of atoms are determined by the number of protons in the nucleus, which dictates the element the atom belongs to.


Why did scientists know that atoms have positive charges?

A neutral atom has not an electrical charge; only cations have a positive charge. Using an electrochemical cell with two electrodes (anode and catode) you can determine the charge of ions in the solution.
