Is the magnesium atom electrically neutral or electrically charged?
The magnesium atom is electrically neutral.
Why is an atom electrically neutral inspite of the presence of charged particles it it?
Because an electrically neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons.
How many electron does the element nitrogen have?
There are 7 electrons, 7 Protons, and 7 neutrons in the element Nitrogen.
How does an s2- ion differ from an electrically neutral sulfur atom?
All ions differ from an electrically neutral atom in that they are missing or have gained one or more electrons. A S2- atom has 2 less electrons than a neutral atom.
When an atoms electrical charges are balanced the atom is electrically?
This is a neutral substance.
Is the magnesium atom electrically neutral or electrically charged?
The magnesium atom is electrically neutral.
What is an example of an electrically neutral atom?
An electrically neutral atom is one that has an equal number of protons and electrons.
Is nitrogen an neutral atom or an ion?
Neutral atom. An atom of nitrogen will also be an isotope of nitrogen.
Which atom is electrically neutral?
All atoms are electrically neutral. If an atom gains or loses an electron, we call it an "ion" rather than an atom.
Why is uranium electrically neutral?
Any atom is neutral in the normal state.After loss or gain of electrons an atom become electrically charged.
Why is an atom electrically neutral inspite of the presence of charged particles it it?
Because an electrically neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons.
Why is an atom electrically neutral?
An atom has the same number of positive protons and negative electrons so the charges balance out to zero
How many electron does the element nitrogen have?
There are 7 electrons, 7 Protons, and 7 neutrons in the element Nitrogen.
In the atom which is usually electrically neutral?
Na+
What is the total number of electrons in nitrogen?
The Nitrogen Atom possesses seven protons in its nucleus; therefore the electrically neutral atom of Nitrogen has seven electrons in orbit about it.
Is a aluminum an isotope ion or neutral atom?
An alumimium atom is electrically neutral and it is an isotope of aluminum.
How does an s2- ion differ from an electrically neutral sulfur atom?
All ions differ from an electrically neutral atom in that they are missing or have gained one or more electrons. A S2- atom has 2 less electrons than a neutral atom.
