How does a material acquire a positive electric charge?
By losing electrons.
What electrical charge do protons neutrons and electrons have?
Protons have a positive charge, neutrons have no charge, and electrons have negative charge.Neutrons do not carry an electrical charge:)A proton has a positive charge. Remember, NEUTRon = NEUTRal. Proton = Positive. The electrical charge of a proton is 1.6x10^-19 which is equal and opposite to the electrical charge of an electron which is -1.6x10^-19.
What is a positive charge and particles called that have no charge?
A positive charge is a positive electrical charge. Particles with no charge are called neutral particles.
Does a proton have a electrical charge?
Positive
Why do elements acquire positive charge on gaining electrons?
They do not. An electron is negatively charged and an atom can only acquire a negative charge on gaining electrons.

What is calcium's electrical charge?
positive charge, ca2+
Do neutrons hold a positive charge?
no they are neither, they have a neutral chargeNeutrons carry a neutral electrical charge. Protons have a positive and electrons have a negative electrical charge.
What bears a positive electrical charge while what has no electrical charge?
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.
Does a proton have a electrical charge?

What is the electrical charge in the proton?
Protons produce a positive charge.
