if these atoms are all the same type of atom, than a cluster of them shall make an element. so in reverse: an atom of an element is a tiny fraction of that elements.

for example: Sodium is made of of many atoms. Each sodium atom 11 protons and neutrons in the centre, and 11 electrons circling around.

hope i helped :)

Can atoms with no charge combine with other atoms with no charge?

Yes. When atoms with no charge combine with one or more atoms with no charge, it's called a molecule. They may share electrons to complete their octet.


What atoms have no overall charge?

Atoms with no overall charge are called neutral atoms. They have the same number of protons, which carry a positive charge, and electrons, which carry a negative charge. This balance of positive and negative charges leads to a neutral overall charge for the atom.


Ions are atoms that carry an electric charge?

Atoms carry a positive charge on the proton and a negative charge on the electron, usually these cancel out.

Atom or group of atoms having a negative charge?

An atom or group of atoms having a negative charge is called an anion. Anions are formed when an atom gains one or more electrons, leading to an excess of negative charge. Examples of common anions include chloride (Cl−) and sulfate (SO4 2-).


Atoms have what kinds of electric charge?

As a rule, atoms do not have a charge, that is why they are atoms.Different parts of the atom has a charge:proton - relative mass of 1 - charge of +1neutron - relative mass of 1 - charge of 0electron - relative mass of about 1/2000 - charge of -1A atom has a equal number of electons and a equal number of protons, and so no charge
