You call it the nucleus
A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge.
it cant have any charge at all. atoms have an equal amount of protons and neutron therefore the give off no charge. if they did give off a charge they would no longer be atoms they would be ions
For starters, All atoms have a positive charge. Protons are positive, neutrons are neutral and the electrons are negative. Only the protons and neutrons are in the center making the center positive. The center is the nucleus.
Normally, atoms do not have a charge, but if they are ionic, they have either a positive or negative charge, normally with the addition or loss of electrons.
He knew that in a vacuum tube metals can be made to emit streams of negative charge which were then called cathode rays. If atoms are neutral and can produce negative charge, there must be positive charge there too.
This is the Rutherford model.
The conclusion was that an atom has a nucleus (center) with a positive charge.
Charged particles in atoms include protons, neutrons and electrons.PROTONS give atoms a positive charge. NEUTRONShave a neutral charge, or no charge. ELECTRONS give off a negative charge.The protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus, which is the center of the atom. The electrons hover around the nucleus because they are negatively charged and are attracted to the nucleus that has positive charge.
Because protons have a positive charge and neutrons have no charge, the atomic nucleus has a positive charge.
No they do not.
electrons
Positive atoms: cations. Negative atoms: anions
A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge.
The positive -charge in an atom is called the proton.They are held in the nucleus with the neutrons.
a zewithalarion shows poth positive and negative; go figure...
An atom may be neutral, or it may have a positive or a negative charge. If it has a charge, it is called an ion.
An atom with positive charge is cation.An atom with negative charge is anion.
