What else can I help you with?
When ions having a positively charge form bonds with ions having a negative charge the charge on the resulting compound is?
The resulting compound would be electrically neutral.
Is matter usually charge-neutral?
Yes, matter is typically charge-neutral because it contains equal numbers of positively and negatively charged particles (protons and electrons, respectively). This balance of charges allows matter to maintain a neutral overall charge.
What is the atom as having a small positively charged nucleus surrounded by large region where there are enough electrons to make the atom neutral?
No because the electron are small and don't have enough of energy to make atom neutral
An electrically neutral object can be attracted by a positively charged object because?
A neutral pith ball is still "charged", it just doesn't display excessively charged behavior. Since it is neutral, having nearly equal positive and negative charge, the proximity of the positively charged pith ball still attracts the negative charge present in the ball, inducing polarization moving the ball closer to the positively charged one. Once they make contact, the conductibility of the pith ball quickly accepts excess charge from the other, creating a like charge repulsion.
Why are atoms neutral despite having charged particles?
because, in a neutral atom, there are the same numbers of positive and negative particles that cancel each other out. for example, the attraction (or lack thereof) between an electron and hydrogen an electron is attracted to the hydrogen's proton an electron is repelled by the hydrogen's electron the attraction and repel results in the electron being neutrally affected by the atom
How is a cat-ion formed?
cations are positively charged ions formed by loss of electrons from the neutral atoms having 1,2,3 valence electrons
Why are ATOMS normally electrically neutral?
Beacause atoms contain 3 types of sub atomic particle- protons,neutrons and electrons. The protons and neutrons are in the neuclius and the electrons are around the outside. The protons are positivly charged. The neutrons neutral and the electrons negativly charged. So, the protons and electrons charges cacell each other out. So the atom has no charge overall.
When an atom loses an electron it becomes a netural ion?
When an atom loses an electron, it becomes a positively charged ion called a cation. This occurs because the atom now has more positively charged protons than negatively charged electrons, leading to a net positive charge.
Cations are formed by?
Cations are formed by atoms losing electrons, resulting in a positively charged ion. This occurs when atoms from metals and certain nonmetals give up electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. The loss of electrons creates a deficiency of negative charge, leading to a positive charge on the cation.
Does a plasma have a positive charge?
Plasma is a state of matter composed of positively charged ions and free electrons, making it overall electrically neutral rather than having a positive charge.
What is charged by having a one way current flow through it?
A battery is charged by having a DC current flow through it.
Why photons are neutral?
They are only neutral' in the sense of having no charge - they do have an electrical field. If they had charge, they would also have rest mass, because the charge represents energy and energy and mass are the same thing. So they would not travel at the speed of light. At least classically, it is not possible to have a charged massless particle.
