You can tell if the negative balloon attracts or repels the other balloon. If it attracts the balloon then it is a positive balloon. If it repels the balloon then it is a negative balloon.

What determines whether or not an atom will react with other atoms?

depends on the charges, either negative or positive


What determines whether an atom forms a positive or negative charge in an ionic bond?

If an atom is electropositive (metals, in general), then they will lose electrons and form positive ions. If an atom is electronegative (non-metals, in general), then they will gain electrons and form negative ions.


How do you know if an ion has a negative or positive charge?

If you want to find out whether an atom contains positive ions or negative ions, you will generally need to look it up. However, there are some general rules that can help you figure it out without research. First of all, there are 3 types of elements on the periodic table: metals, nonmetals, and metalloids. The majority of elements are metallic. Atoms tend to form ions based on whether they gain or give away electrons (e-) when bonding with other elements. Nonmetals tend to form anions (negative ions), meaning that they gain 1 or more electrons when forming a bond. Metals, on the other hand, tend to lose electrons when bonding, so they are most likely to form cations (positive ions).


What are the meanings of color?

The aura of a person is the energy they are emitting. So, it's kind of like their attitude or, for example, whether their energy is positive or negative. Different colors mean different things. But basically it's like their feelings or emotions, their energy.


Are all electrons attracted to each other?

Electrons have a negative charge, so they will repel away from one another. Electrons are attracted only to protons or other positive charges. if your question is whether,a negative charge attracts other, it is possible,if you place a charge of less magnitude near a charge of greater magnitude, one can attract other.this is due to the fact that, induction charges are set up in the lesser magnitude charge due to the greater magnitude charge.

How might you use a balloon with a negative charge to find out whether the charge on another balloon is positive or negative?

If you move a negatively-charged balloon close to another balloon, if it moves towards the first balloon, it is positively-charged. If it moves away, it is negatively charged.

What happen when you divide negative and positive number?

When you divide or multiply positive and negative numbers, you first do the division or multiplication as normal. The next step is to assess whether or not the answer will be negative or positive. If the two numbers of the question were the same (negative and negative or positive and positive) then the answer will be positive. If the two numbers in the question were different (one negative and one positive) then the answer will be negative. Thus, if you divide a negative number by a positive number, the result will be the same as normal division, but the answer will be negative.

If you add a positive and a negative number how can you tell whether the answer will be positive negative or equal?

If the negative number is bigger then the answer will be negative If the bigger number is positive then the answer will be positive. All you do is subtract the two numbers and take the sign of the bigger number Ex (+2)+(-7)=(-5)
