During glycolysis NADH is formed when hydrogen atoms are transferred to an electron acceptor called?
NAD+
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.
What do you use a electron microscope for?
To see atoms or other extremely small things that you can not see in a light microscope. Even with an electron microscope, atoms are still barely visible.
When one atom loses an electron and another accepts that electron?
It depends on the exact situation. Probably ions Well this answer is vaguely correct. When an atom gains or loses an electron it becomes an ion. Ions with a net positive charge are called cations and ions with a net negative charge are anions. This allows for an ionic bond to occur. An ionic bond occurs when an anion binds with a cation.
Could an atom ever lose a electron without another atom gaining one?
Yes. An atom can lose an electron without another atom gaining one. It happens quite frequently in atom smashers. Scientists strip off all the electrons and crash the nucleus of one atom into other atoms. And they even get paid to do it!
What kind of bond is formed when one atoms steals one electron from another atom?
An ionic bond.
What kind of bond is formed when atoms steal an electron from another atom?
An ionic bond.
How are ions formed from atoms?
Ions are the formation of unbalanced atoms due to an attraction caused by a near completion of an electron ring in one atom and extra or valence electrons in the outer ring of another. If an atom gains an extra electron its over all charge is negative and the opposite is true for the atom gaining an electron.
Does a ionic bond form when 2 atoms share electrons?
No,a covalent bond is formed when 2 atoms share electrons. On the other hand, an ionic bond on the other hand occurs when one atom takes/steals an electron from another atom and the resulting polarity (the differences in charges) between the two atoms causes them to attract. The atoms will have different charges since the atom that took an electron will be more negative and the atom that gave an electron will be more positive.
What is formed when two atoms are trying to take other's electron?
If you mean two atoms are sharing electrons, then a covalent bond is formed.
What ion is formed when an atom loses an electron.?
A positive ion is formed when atoms lose electrons. When a cell gains an electron it becomes negative
What is it when 2 atoms gain or loses an electron?
an ionic compound is formed
What happens when the electron shell of two atoms overlap?
I have no idea.Ask a science teacherWhen the electron shells of two atoms overlap, a chemical bond will be formed.
What is formed when a atom gives up a electron?
When an atom gives up one or more electrons to another atom, an ionic bond is formed. Atoms are the basic unit of a chemical element.
How does ionic bonds form?
Ionic bonds are formed when atoms lose or gain electrons in order to have a full outer shell of electrons to make them stable.One atom pulls an electron from another atom.
What is it called when atoms share an electron?
A Covalent bond is formed. A Covalent bond is formed.
The smallest particle of a compound formed when the atoms combined chemically?
Neutrons
