∙ 11y agoI'm not completely sure what your getting at with this question but here's my answer: In a sense, a neutron is both positively and negatively charged because when a neutron undergoes beta decay it releases both a positively charged proton and a negatively charged electron through an interaction involving a change in quarks via a weak force interaction.

∙ 11y agoSince protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge, an atom with more protons than electrons would have a positive charge. Note that an atom with this kind of imbalance is known as an ion.
Negative. Actually, I believe it is Static Charge.
A positive charge.
The neutrons do not affect the charge of an atom. The positive charge is on the proton the equal but negative charge is on the electron.If an atom has more electrons than protons it will have an overall negative charge.
A unipositive or uninegative monoatomic ion.
Since protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge, an atom with more protons than electrons would have a positive charge. Note that an atom with this kind of imbalance is known as an ion.
A charged atom is called an ion.If it has more protons then electrons, it has a positive charge.If it has more electrons than protons, it has a negative charge.
Any "object" larger than elementary particles consists of positive and negative charges. If your object has a negative charge, it simply has more particles with a negative charge than particles with a positive charge.
negative
when an atom loses one or more of its electrons(negative charge) and have more protons(positive charge). this creates a positive ion
A charge which is not a positive charge is a negative charge.
Negative. Actually, I believe it is Static Charge.
If there are more protons than electrons there is a positive charge. If there is more electrons than protons there is a negative charge.
A positive charge.
An ion is either a positive charged or a negative charged atom. Negative ions have one or more extra electrons, and positive ones have one or more electrons not there.
An atom is negative when there are more electrons which gives it that negative charge. An atom is positive when there are less electrons than protons.
No. An 'atom' can not have more electrons than protons because, by definition, an 'atom' is electrically neutral. If an 'atom' loses or gains an electron, it becomes an 'ion' and is electrically charged. An 'ion' with more electrons than protons will be NEGATIVELY charged because electrons carry negative charge.
