What else can I help you with?
An atom that has lost two electrons is called?
This atom become a cation with the electrical charge +2.
Which particles in an atom have electrical charges?
The Electrons and the Protons.
What type of electrical charge is associated with a single atom?
If an atom has an even number of protons and electrons, it has no charge, so it is neutral. If it has an uneven number of protons or electrons and has a positive or negative charge depending on which has more. It is then called radioactive.
What bears a positive electrical charge while what has no electrical charge?
The proton is the particle that has a positive charge. The neutron is the particle that has a neutral charge. both of these reside in the nucleus of an atom.
What kinds of electrical charges do protons electrons and nuetrons have?
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
What do you call an atom when it has an electric charge?
An atom with an electrical charge is called an ion.
What is an atom that has an electric charge because it lost or gained electrons?
An atom that carries an electrical charge because it has gained or lost electrons is called an "ion". An atom that has gained one or more electrons, and has a negative electrical charge, is called an "anion". An atom that has lost one or more electrons, and has a positive electrical charge, is called a "cation". The term "ion" is used to refer to both cations and anions collectively or non-specifically.
Why does an atom no electrical charge?
Having a charge it is called an ION. No charge means: same number of protons and electrons.
What are the particles which have a negative electical charge in an atom called?
A particle with a negative electrical charge is called an electron.
When an atom gains or loses electrons it has an electrical charge. It is known as?
It is called an ion.
What is the electrical charge of an atom?
An atom does not have an electrical charge. Atoms have equal numbers of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons. If there are not equal numbers of protons (+1) and electrons (-1) then it is not called an atom, it is called an ion.
Does an atom have an electric charge?
If there is an imbalance in the numbers of protons in electrons, then yes, an atom would have electrical charge.
What is the negative charge in an atom called?
The negative charge in an atom is called an electron. Electrons are subatomic particles that orbit the nucleus of an atom and are responsible for carrying electrical current and forming chemical bonds.
What are Atoms that carry an electrical charge called because they have gained or lost electrons?
Atoms that carry an electrical charge because they gained or lost electrons are called ions. An atom that has lost electrons will be positively charged, and it is called cation. On the other hand, an atom that has gained electrons will be negatively charged, and it is called anion.
What is an atom with one or more electrons added or subtracted it has an electrical charge?
This is called an ion.
What is the general overall charge of an atom?
A neutral atom hasn't an electrical charge.
What is the electrical charge of a fluorine atom?
A fluorine atom has a negative electrical charge of -1 due to its 9 protons and 10 electrons.
