There are three different types of charges: positive, negative, and neutral. All three have their own specific properties having to do solely on atomic particles. In positive substances or ions, you will have a large number of protons which have a positive charge to outnumber the charge of the electrons which give off a negative charge, and lastly you have neutrons which don't really give a substance anything other than mass, to get a neutral charge the protons and neutrons must be in equal amounts to cancel out each others' charges.

∙ 15y agoThe basic property of electric charges is that there are positive and negative charges created by positive and negative ions, which are atoms that have either lost or gained electrons. Opposite charges attract each other and like charges repel each other. Also, charges are measured in units called Coulombs (C), and they can be detected by a device called an electroscope.

Why do lithium and beryllium form ions with different charges?
Yes they do have the same properties.
Emergent properties of water result in the fact that water molecules?
are attracted to each other by partial negative and positive charges on the oxygen and hydrogen atoms, respectively
An ionic crystal splits along a face of what?
like charges
What are some properties of a matter?
phisical properties and chemical properties
What are the properties of special properties?
Special properties are unusual properties a mineral may have that most minerals don't.
What are the properties of organic compounds determined by?
The properties of organic compounds is determined by the shape of molecule and the positive and negative charges existing on the molecule. The factor of varying electro-negativity is also very important in determining the properties.
What charge is copper 2 solphide?
Copper II sulphate has variable valency properties, which translates to variable charges.
Is the north pole of a magnet tinged properties minus and the south pole of a magnet tinged properties plus?
No. While electricity and magnetism are closely connected, the poles of a magnet no not correspond with electrical charges.
Why do lithium and beryllium form ions with different charges?
Yes they do have the same properties.
That are the chemical properties of iron?
it consists of a negatively charged anion and a positively charged anion which are attracted by each others opposing charges
What properties of metals and saltwater make them good materials for a battery?
saltwater contains ions that help in the flow of electricity as they can 'carry' positive or negative charges.
Emergent properties of water result in the fact that water molecules?
are attracted to each other by partial negative and positive charges on the oxygen and hydrogen atoms, respectively
What is the Basic structure of an atom?
Basically, an atom consists of a very tiny nucleus surrounded by electrons. To understand the basic structure of an atom, you really need to know that the nucleus and electrons have opposite electrical charges. The nucleus is positively charged, and the electrons are negatively charged. Opposite charges attract; this is why the electrons stay bound to the nucleus. If there are an equal number of negative (electron) charges as there are positive charges in the nucleus (which come from the protons in the nucleus), the atom will will have no charge. The nature of the electron states is addressed by quantum mechanics. Electrons have wave properties. Without getting too deeply into the quantum theory, quite a lot about atoms and their properties can be rationalized using the Bohr model of the atom.
Is there way to estimate international shipping?
There are many ways to estimate international shipping charges. The United States Postal Service website has an interactive tool that asks for your shipment properties and calculates the estimated cost.
What are non-moving charges?
It means that they are charges (that usually refers to electrical charges), and that they don't move (or don't move significantly).
Which subatomic particles are attracted to each other?
Protons, which have positive charge, attract electrons, which have negative charge. Also, quarks with positive charge attract quarks with negative charge. (Actually, it is this electric charge which defines the properties of the particle they make up. A proton has more quarks with positive charges than with negative charges, for example.)
When there is full of negative charges in a jar are there going to be negative charges?
No there are not going to be negative charges there are going to be positive charges!!!!
