What else can I help you with?
If an atom gains electrons it become a?
If the atom was neutral, it becomes an anion. Since electrons have a (-) charge
If a neutral atom gains or loses electrons it acquires a charge and becomes an?
This neutral atom become a cation or an anion.
What charge develops on rubbing plastic straw with polythene?
When you rub a plastic straw with polythene, the plastic straw becomes negatively charged due to the transfer of electrons between the materials. Electrons are transferred from the polythene to the plastic straw, leaving the straw with a negative charge.
What is a electrified atom?
An electrified atom is an atom that has gained or lost one or more electrons, resulting in a net electric charge. When an atom gains electrons, it becomes negatively charged (anion), and when it loses electrons, it becomes positively charged (cation).
Salt is formed from positively charged sodium and negatively charged chlorine the charge on the salt becomes negative A True B False?
B. False. Salt (sodium chloride) is a neutral compound formed from the combination of a positively charged sodium ion and a negatively charged chloride ion. The overall charge of salt remains neutral.
What happens to a material when it loses electron?
a it becomes positively b it becomes negatively charge
Is it true if a body has a charge similar to the charge produced on glass rod then the body is negatively charged?
Not necessarily. If a body has the same charge as a glass rod (negative), it means the body is negatively charged. The charge is determined by the excess or deficit of electrons on the body.
How does an atom negatively charge?
An atom becomes negatively charged when it receives an electron from another atom. In other words, if there are more electrons than protons in an atom, it becomes negatively charged.
A cat becomes negatively charged when it's brushed. How does the electric charge on the brush compare to the charge on the cat?
An object becomes negatively charged when electrons are transferred to it from another object it comes in contact with that has a higher negative charge. Therefore, the brush must have more a electrons than the cat and a higher negative charge.
When do you say that an object is negatively charge?
when the object contains more electrons than protons it becomes negatively charged or and Ion.
What happens when a atom gains an electron?
When an atom gains an electron, it becomes negatively charged and forms an anion. This process is known as reduction, and it can change the chemical properties of the atom by affecting its reactivity and ability to form bonds.
When a body is negatively charge by rubbing it means?
The body is negatively charged by friction means that when a body is moving, due to frictional force the body is gaining negative charges from the contact side/or from the surface on which it is being dragged.
How does a body become positively charged?
To charge it positively placed a negatively charge body near it. The positive charge of the sphere is attracted near to the surface close to the negatively charge body. To make it completely positive just earth it (by touching it). This process is known as induction. To charge a body negatively is similar to the aforementioned method.
When the perspex rod is rubbed with nylon and the rod becomes positively charge what charge will be on the nylon?
a negative charge
How does an atom becomes Negatively charged?
An atom becomes negatively charged when it receives an electron from another atom. In other words, if there are more electrons than protons in an atom, it becomes negatively charged.
Why does sodium have a 1 plus charge?
The atom loses one negatively charged electron when it becomes an ion. So, it becomes Na+.
What a neutral atom gains electrons what happens to the atoms overall charge?
It becomes negatively charged.
