The nucleus of an atom is always positive, even if it loses or gains electrons to form ions. Ionization affects the electrons in the electron cloud, but not the contents of the nucleus. The numbers of both the protons and neutrons in the nucleus will remain the same for whatever isotope is undergoing ionization. For example, the most abundant isotope of calcium is calcium-40, in which the nucleus contains 20 protons and 20 neutrons, and the electron cloud contains 20 electrons. When calcium atoms react with a nonmetal, they lose 2 electrons from the electron cloud and develop a 2+ charge, but the contents of the nucleus still contain 20 protons and 20 neutrons.
What else can I help you with?
Is a proton a negative positive or neutral?
A proton is positive, an electron is negative, and a neutron is 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.
Protons are blank charged particles?
Protons - Positive Electrical Charge Electrons - Negative Electrical Charge Neutrons - Neutral or No Charge
What happens when a positively charged electron becomes neutral?
When a positively charged electron becomes neutral, it gains an equal amount of negative charge to balance out the positive charge. This typically occurs through the addition of another electron or the loss of a proton, resulting in a neutral atom.
What positively charged parts of an atom?
The answer is in the names of the particles. The Neutron is neutral. The Electron is negative. The Proton is positive.
Is a proton a negative positive or neutral?
A proton is positive, an electron is negative, and a neutron is neutral.
Is steel positively charged or negatively charged?
It should normally be neutral, that is, it should not have a significant charge, positive or negative.
Is paper positively or negatively charged?
Paper is typically neutral and does not have a positive or negative charge.
Protons are blank charged particles?
Protons - Positive Electrical Charge Electrons - Negative Electrical Charge Neutrons - Neutral or No Charge

Does a positively charged particle have more proton?
Yes, Protons are positive Neutrons are Neutral Electrons are negative
What positively charged parts of atoms?
The answer is in the names of the particles. The Neutron is neutral. The Electron is negative. The Proton is positive.
When a positively charged body touches a neutral body the neutral body will what?
When a positively charged body touches a neutral body, the neutral body will become positively charged due to the transfer of some positive charge from the positively charged body.
What happens when a positively charged electron becomes neutral?
When a positively charged electron becomes neutral, it gains an equal amount of negative charge to balance out the positive charge. This typically occurs through the addition of another electron or the loss of a proton, resulting in a neutral atom.
What is a positively charged partice?
A particle that has a Positive charge is called the "proton" Proton=positive Electron=negative Neutron=neutral
What are the three types of charges that particles can have?
Positive, Neutral, or Negative Positively charged particles are protons Negatively charged particles are electrons Neutrally charged or no charge particles are neutrons
Which subatomic particles have a charge?
protons-positive neutrons-neutral electrons-negative
