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 :)
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-).
A polyatomic ion is a group of atoms with a charge.
Positively charged atoms are called ions, specifically cations. Hydrogen when ionised as H+ is a bare proton.
Not all atoms have negatively charged electrons. Atoms can also contain positively charged protons and neutral neutrons. The overall charge of an atom depends on the balance between its protons and electrons, leading to atoms having no net charge or a positive charge.
Ions. Cations have lost electrons and have a positive charge. Anions have gained electrons and have a negative charge.
They are called ions.
by having a negative sign
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.
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.
Atoms carry a positive charge on the proton and a negative charge on the electron, usually these cancel out.
It is an ion.
The positive -charge in an atom is called the proton.They are held in the nucleus with the neutrons.

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
ions or radicals
Cations.
