What does it mean when a atom has a charge of plus 1?
When an atom has a charge of plus 1, it means that it has lost one electron, resulting in a positive charge. This atom is now called a cation due to its positive charge, and it will likely seek to gain an electron to achieve a stable electron configuration.
Does a Netron have a negative charge?
I assume that you mean 'neutron.'NO!, a Neutron does not have any charge ... it's Neutral.It's the Electron that has the negative charge and, the Proton has a positive charge.
Particles of an atom that lack any changes are called?
If you mean "... lack any charges", that would be the neutron.If you mean "... lack any charges", that would be the neutron.If you mean "... lack any charges", that would be the neutron.If you mean "... lack any charges", that would be the neutron.
How is the charge of the atom or ion determined from the number of protons neutrons and electrons present?
Atoms have protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and electrons have electric charge, but neutrons do not. Protons are positively charged, and electrons are negatively charged. An atom has the same number of protons and electrons. Because the atom has same amounts of positively and negatively charged particles, the atom is neutral and has no electric charge. The only time an atom becomes electrically charged is if it loses or gains protons or electrons to throw off the balance. For example, we know that hydrogen only has 1 proton, 1 neutron, and 1 electron. This hydrogen atom has not electric charge. Later on, the hydrogen atom gains a proton. This would mean that there is more positive charge than negative charge in the atom. The hydrogen atom is now electrically charged.
What does it mean for an atom to be neutral?
It means that the atom has no charge (not positive or negative). This is because there are an equal number of protons and electrons in the atom. When an atom has a charge it is called an ion.
What does it mean when an entire atom has a charge of o?
If an atom has a charge of 0, it is neutrally charged. This means that the number of electrons in the atom is equal to the number of protons in the atom.
What does it mean when Suzuki samurai Goes into gear but does not move?
Your transfer case may be in neutrual.
The Part of an atom that is not part of The nucleus. What. is It's charge?
Do you mean the electrons? They have a negative charge
What does it mean when an atom is electrically charged?
it means that the atom has an electrical charge running through it
What does the word neutral mean for the kinds of charge an atom has?
An atom that has a neutral charge is one with which the quantity of electrons is equal to the atomic number.
The Part of an atom that is not part of The nucleus What is It's charge?
Do you mean the electrons? They have a negative charge
What is the charge of an object that has an equal number of protons and the electrons?
Assuming you mean the charge of an atom with equal numbers of protons and electrons, the charge of the atom would be zero/neutral.
What is the small particle of an atom which carries a neutral charge?
I think you mean a neutron. We don't say 'a neutral charge', but rather that it has no charge.
What does protons electrons neutrons mean?
Electrons, protons, and neutrons are different parts of an atom. The proton is positive and the electron is negative while the neutron is of both equally. Depending on the number of each is in an atom, is the type of atom you have.
What does it mean for an atom to have an electric charge?
The number of electrons do not match the number of protons.
What kind of atom is a normal atom?
What do you mean by "normal" atom? There are ions: charged atoms or molecules. It is charged because the number of electrons do not equal the number of protons in the atom or molecule. An atom can acquire a positive charge or a negative charge depending on whether the number of electrons in an atom is greater or less then the number of protons in the atom. But I think a "normal" atom, would be a neutral one. A neutral atom has the same amount of protons as electrons, therefore have no net charge.
What does it mean when a atom has a charge of plus 1?
When an atom has a charge of plus 1, it means that it has lost one electron, resulting in a positive charge. This atom is now called a cation due to its positive charge, and it will likely seek to gain an electron to achieve a stable electron configuration.
