Ions are atoms of the same element that have the same number of protons, but have either lost or gained one or more electrons, causing them to have different electrical charges. If they have lost electrons, they are negative ions, and if they have gained electrons they are positive ions. A "+" is used to denote an ion. For example:
Ions.
Depending on whether the atom has an excess of electrons or a deficiency of them (negative or positive charge) the atom is called an "anion" (negative charge) or "cation" (positive).
These names come from the names for electrodes; anode and cathode. Which is to say that they are named after a precedent set by people working in the field of electricity and physics for the direction that certain charges move inside an electrical system.
Ions, which are positively charged when less electrons, and negatively when more electrons than protons.
elements with the same number of protons but different number of electrons are called ions.
different number of neutrons are isotopes
Charged Ions
It is called an electric current.
A stream of charged particles is called an electrical current.
No , an atom always has equal numbers of protons and electrons. If it has more charges of one kind than another is called an ion. Obviously this is caused by the number of protons and electrons compared to each other. If it has more positive charges, it has more protons than electrons, making it a positive ion. If it is a negative charge, it has more electrons than protons, it is a negative ion.
Atoms that have different mass numbers but the [same] number of protons are called isotopes.
The Electrons and the Protons.
Protons
Protons
Protons have the greatest charge wich is positive.Electrons have the worst charge wich is negative.Nuetrons have a positive and a negative charge wich is called neutral. these are the respictive charges of an atom
Those are called protons.
positive charges
electrical energy
That is the electric energy. It is called the electricity
If you are referring to the flow of electric charges it is called electrical energy.
false
positive charges
electrical energy.
It is called an electric current.
