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 molecules have an uneven charge with more negative charge on the side and more positive charge on the other?

You are describing polar molecules, of which water is probably the most well known.


What does it mean for a water molecule to be polar?

It means there is a positive side and a negative side to it. The 2 atoms of Hydrogen in a water molecule bond asymetrically to the oxygen atom. Like this O / \ H H Instead of this way H--O--H The molecule then has a more positive charge on the Hydrogen side of the molecule and a negative charge on the Oxygen side. ( When a molecule is polar, it means that the molecule has been given a charge. In water, H2O, Oxygen has a charge and so does hydrogen. However, because there is such a large difference in electronegativity between the Oxygen and the Hydrogens, then the distribution of electrons within the molecule becomes uneven. This causes one end of the molecule to contain a slightly postive charge and the other end to possess a slightly negavtive charge. ) Hope This WiLL HeLp u !! ))


A plant is placed in a sealed greenhouse with a fixed supply of water soil and air After a year the plant weighs 5 kg more than at the start of the experiment and what weighs almost 5 kg less?

The air in the room weighs almost 5 kg less.


What is the definition of positively charged ion?

If an atom gives one or more electrons as a result positive ion is formed. The reason is that an electron is negatively charged and normally an atom is neutral. if it gives electrons then positive ion is formed which is more likely to take electron to become neutral.

What is the charge of a proton?

With relation to an electron the proton has a charge of -1, since the proton's charge is opposite of the electron's. However, the common notation of charge is relative to a proton's- therefore, it is more accurate to leave things in terms of a proton's charge. In terms of proton charge, a proton has a charge of +1.


What is difference between proton and positive charge?

There is no difference, they are one the same. A proton has a positive charge and a positive charge is a proton. Of course with the positive charge, it's simply having more protons than electrons.


What kind of charge does an object with more proton's than electrons have?

It has a positive charge.


Which is slight more massive then a proton?

Neutrons contain slightly more mass.


How does the mass of the neutron compare with the mass of the proton?

The mass of a neutron is slightly greater than the mass of a proton. The neutron has no electric charge while the proton has a positive charge (+1 elementary charge). The mass of a neutron and a proton are 1.67492729(28)×10−27 kilograms and 1.672621637(83)×10−27 kilograms respectively. That makes the neutron about 25/10,000ths more massive than the proton.


In what 2 ways are a proton and a neutron similar?

The proton make up the nucleus, along with the neutrons, and the electrons insanely fly all around the nucleus...... The protons have a positive charge, while the electrons have a negative charge..... Neutrons have no charge....


What mass do neutrons have?

Slightly more than that of a proton plus an electron.


What is the relative charge of proton?

A proton has an absolute charge of + 1.6 x 10-19 coulombs.


Which particle has a close mass to proton?

The neutron, which is slightly more massive. The neutron is composed up two down quarks and one up quark (charges of -1/3 and 2/3 [in terms of proton charge], respectively) and the proton is composed of one down quark and two up quarks.


In the electron charge to mass experiment if the electron is replaced by a proton or neutron would the charge to mass ratio value still be the same why or why not?

Compared to the (charge/mass) ratio of the electron:-- The (charge/mass) ratio of the proton is much smaller; although the proton charge is equal to the electron charge, the proton mass is much larger, by a factor of more than 1,800.-- The (charge/mass) ratio of the neutron is zero, because the neutron charge is zero.


Is a proton the opposite of a electron?

No. The opposite of an electron is an antielectron or positron, which has exactly the same mass but opposite charge. A proton has opposite charge from that of an electron, but it is about 1836 times more massive.


Compared to a proton an electron has?

The same quantity of a charge and the opposite sign.
