What is an ionized atom?
When an atom is ionized, that means that it is sharing one or more electrons with another atom.
Can atoms be ionized by being excited?
No. When you excite an atom, you just do something with the electrons within the atom. (You take them into higher energy levels.) An atom can be ionized only when it is charged, you would have to remove or add an electron. But you are only placing the electron on higher energy level, so it stays within the atom, therefore atom is not ionized.
Can you draw the structures of an ionized carboxyl group and an ionized amino group in one question?
The ionized carboxyl group has a negatively charged oxygen atom bonded to a carbon atom, which is also bonded to a hydroxyl group. The ionized amino group has a positively charged nitrogen atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms.
What are the properties of a neutral atom and how does it differ from an ionized atom?
A neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, resulting in no overall charge. An ionized atom has gained or lost electrons, creating a positive or negative charge. This difference in charge affects the atom's chemical behavior and reactivity.
What happens after an atom stores energy from passing electrons?
When an atom absorbs energy from passing electrons, the electrons may move to higher energy levels within the atom. This can lead to the atom becoming excited or even ionized. Eventually, the atom will release the stored energy in the form of light or heat to return to a more stable state.
What is is an ionized atom?
When an atom is ionized, that means that it is sharing one or more electrons with another atom.
What happens when an electron collides with an atom?
When an electron collides with an atom, it can transfer energy to the atom, causing the atom to become excited or ionized. This can lead to the atom emitting light or undergoing chemical reactions.
What happens if atom loses electron?
When an atom loses electrons it becomes ionized and more positive a charge. Losing an electron can cause this atom to react with other atoms.
What is an ionized atom?
When an atom is ionized, that means that it is sharing one or more electrons with another atom.
Which term is defined as an atom that has a charge?
Ionized atom Excited atom
What happens if an atom is too ionized?
If your atom is too ionized, it will likely zip away from you and attach itself to a nearby atom or molecule. An atom becomes radioactive when its nucleus contains too many or too few neutrons. Try to keep the same number of neutrons and protons as you build your atom. If the imbalance is too great, radioactive decay will occur.
What happens when an atom absorbs ultraviolet energy and an electron is involved?
When an atom absorbs ultraviolet energy and an electron is involved, the electron can move to a higher energy level or be ejected from the atom, leading to the atom becoming ionized or excited.

Are the number of protons and electrons equal in an atom?
If it is not ionized, then yes
Can atoms be ionized by changing the number of positive charges?
Ionizing is when you rip an electron away. so by taking an electron away, the atom is ionized
