False. If an atom gains or loses electrons, the result is called an ion, not a molecule.

When an atom gains or loses electrons it becomes a charged particle also known as an ion true or false?
No. it is not true. All positively charged atoms "lose" electrons. not gain them. for example an atom with a charge of +1 has lost 1 electron, an atom with a charge of +2 has lost 2 electrons and so and so forth.
Are protons negatively charged particles found in the nucleus of an atom?
if the positivbe neuatns are catolones then they will be positively charges. if the neutons are spaced then they will be negatively charged :) I THINK
In thomson's experiment why was the glowing beam repelled by a negatively charged plate?
The experiment showed the relation of positive/negative charges. The beam was made of positively charged ions, which were repelled. -there is another answer to this question that says " because it was attracted to the positive charged plate" this is FALSE, this is just a person trying to make a smart remark. --------- Cathode rays are a beam of electrons; electrons are elementary particles with a negative electrical charge.
A double-displacement reaction occurs when the negatively charged metal of one compound replaces the positively charged gas of another compound to form two new compounds during a chemical reaction?

Does Ionic bonds form between two negatively charged particles?
No, ionic bonds form between particles with opposite charges.
True or false a surface that loses electrons becomes positively charged?
That is a true statement.
True or false A Proton is positively charged and found in the orbitals?
Protons are positively charged but found in the NUCLEUS (so false). Electrons are found in the orbitals (but are negatively charged)
Are electrons the positively charged particles in an atom?
In an atom of antimatter, that would be true, in an atom of matter that would be false.
Salt is formed from positively charged sodium and negatively charged chlorine the charge on the salt becomes negative A True B False?
False - the negatively charged chlorine cancels out the positively charged sodium. Therefore salt is a neutral, uncharged compound.

No. it is not true. All positively charged atoms "lose" electrons. not gain them. for example an atom with a charge of +1 has lost 1 electron, an atom with a charge of +2 has lost 2 electrons and so and so forth.
Is a atom that loses electrons have a negative charge?
if it can lose an electron it will have a positive charge. to begin with in a neutral state it has no charge it has an equal amount of protons (positively charged) in the nucleus as it has electrons (negatively charged particles) around the nucleus. Hence in loosing an electron the balance shifts to a positive over all charge. not all elements can become ions like this.

Do all atoms have a positive charge truth or false?
an atom is neutral but this does not mean it carries no charges. it contains protons, which are positively charged and electrons, which are negatively charged. atoms contain equal amounts of protons and electrons so as a whole, they carry a neutral charge, but yes, technically they do have electrical charges from the electrons. an ion atom will contain charges as a whole though.
True or false a nucleus is an atomic particle that has no atomic charge?
Assuming the context of this question is atomic physics, the answer is "false" for two reasons: 1) the atomic nucleus is positively charged. 2) the atomic nucleus a tightly bound composite of many particles.
The loss of electrons from food molecules is reduction true or false?
It is false that the loss of electrons from food molecules is reduction. Electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles.
When the inside of a cell is negatively charged while the outside of the cell is positively charged it is known as resting potential true or false?
True.
Conduction is the transfer of electrons from a charged object to another object by rubbing?
it is False.
