No..... They are called neutral for a reason. But neutral atoms can have electrons added and removed making the atom positive or negative. And neutral atoms are still affected by charged atoms due to reason in depth but to sum up the long explanation of the affect neutral atoms are attracted to charged atoms.
Just a side note.... how many of you love Leo Howard? Am I right?
What else can I help you with?
Are atoms positive or negative?
Yes. It has both.The definition of "neutral" is zero net charge. Every atom has positive and negative charges among its components. If the atom is 'neutral', then the numbers of positive and negative charges are equal, and the atom's 'net' charge is zero.
Atoms have a net charge of zero true or false?
True. The atoms have a proton which has a positive charge and there are same number of electrons with a negative charge. Those two charges cancel each other out and the charge becomes zero. The neutrons do not have any charge.
How are molecules different from atoms?
Atoms consist of electrons (negative charge), protons (positive charge), and neutrons (neutral charge), while molecules consist of atoms.
An atom with more electrons would have charge?
An atom with more protons than electrons will have a positive charge. Neutral atoms can loose electrons if they are subjected to some kind of energy. Sometimed illumination with the correct color of light is sufficient to knock electrons off atoms.
What makes the water molecule polar?
a water molecule is polar because their is an uneven distributive of electrons between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms. the negative pole is near the oxygen atom and the positive pole is between the hydrogen atoms.
Treu or false Atoms have a positive charge?
An atom may be neutral, or it may have a positive or a negative charge. If it has a charge, it is called an ion.
Why are a neutral atoms positive and negative charges balanced?
Neutral atoms have an equal number of protons and electrons. Protons carry a positive charge, while electrons carry a negative charge. The positive charge of the protons is balanced out by the negative charge of the electrons, resulting in an overall neutral charge for the atom.
Is an atom a negative charge or a positive charge?
An atom with positive charge is cation.An atom with negative charge is anion.
What atoms have no overall charge?
Atoms with no overall charge are called neutral atoms. They have the same number of protons, which carry a positive charge, and electrons, which carry a negative charge. This balance of positive and negative charges leads to a neutral overall charge for the atom.
Does all matter have a negative or positive charge?
No, not all matter has a negative or positive charge. Matter can be neutral, meaning it has an equal number of positive and negative charges, such as in most atoms. Charged particles exist in matter, such as electrons with a negative charge and protons with a positive charge.
Do Nonmetallic atoms have Negative charge or a Neutral charge?
Nonmetallic atoms have Neutral charge not a Negative charge.
Does atom has a charge of positive 1?
Atoms are neutral. Ions can be charged, either positive or negative.
Does a ion have a neutral charge?
No, an ion does not have a neutral charge. Ions are atoms or molecules that have gained or lost electrons, resulting in a positive or negative charge.
How are atoms that are neutral in charge?
Atoms that are neutral in charge have the same quantity of protons and electrons. Negative ions have extra electrons, and positive ions are missing electrons.
Do neutrons and hydrogen atoms have the same charge?
No. A neutron is neutral, while a proton has a positive charge. Incidentally, an electron has a negative charge.
What is a group of atoms with with a positive or negative charge?
A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge.
How can atoms be neutral if they have charged particles?
because in their neutral state the number of positive particles is equal to the number of negative particles and the magnitude of a single positive charge is the same as the magnitude of a single negative charge in short the positive and negative charges cancel each other out
