Atoms have equal number of positively charged particles and negatively charged particles and some particles having no charge. Since numbers of positively charged particles and negatively charged particles are equal the NET charge as whole is zero.
atoms have no overall electic charge.It is electically neutral.this is because an atom has both electrons and protons(protons in the nucleus and electons revolving around the nucleus).an electron has a negative charge of 1.6X10-19
while a proton has a positive charge of 1.6X10-19.these positive and negative charges are cancelled out an an electrically neutral atom is found.
it is neutral because number of protons - positive charges - equal number of electrons - negative charges
Because the number of protons are equal to the number of electrons
An unreacted atom has the same number of protons (+) as electrons(-) so the total charge is zero.
There is no net electrical charge on an "unreacted" atom.
A neutral atom differs in charge from a positive or negative ion.
The proton is the particle that has a positive charge. The neutron is the particle that has a neutral charge. both of these reside in the nucleus of an atom.
the atom would positive
The net electrical charge of an atom is zero because it contains an equal number of protons(+) and electrons (-) There is also a neutrons in the nucleus of an atom, however as the name suggests, it is if NO charge (neutral).
If there is an imbalance in the numbers of protons in electrons, then yes, an atom would have electrical charge.
A neutral atom hasn't an electrical charge.
-1 charge
An atom with an electrical charge is called an ion.
Neutron .
There is no net electrical charge on an "unreacted" atom.
Gained or lost electron(s).
The atom is neutral,, there is no net charge
Any ion.
