What are the negative and positive charges in clouds called?
the positive and negative charges in clouds are the protons and electrons formed from the friction of the water that condensated to make the cloud.
What does positive and negative charges make?
They stem from the nucleus of an atom. The atom is composed of electrons, which emit a negative charge, protons which emit positive charges and neutrons which have a neutral charge. When an atom, had a plus positive or minus negative charged, it is called an ion. ion because it either has an extra electron giving it a negative charge, or its missing an electron, giving it a positive charge
Is an isotope nitrogen a positive charge or negative charge?
Nitrogen isotopes do not have a specific positive or negative charge. The charge of an isotope depends on the number of protons and electrons it has relative to each other. In a neutral atom, the number of protons (positive charge) is balanced by the number of electrons (negative charge).
When a molecule has a positive end and a negative end it is called?
Molecules that have partially positive and negative regions are called polar molecules. Polarity results from an unequal attraction of electrons between the atoms that make up a molecule. The electrons are more drawn towards atoms with a higher electronegativity, thus making these atoms partially negative.
The electrical discharge in lightning often occurs between cloud and ground?
Yes, lightning typically occurs between a cloud and the ground, or between two clouds. It is caused by the separation of positive and negative charges within a cloud, resulting in a discharge of electricity to balance the charges.
What are the negative and positive charges in clouds called?
the positive and negative charges in clouds are the protons and electrons formed from the friction of the water that condensated to make the cloud.
What are two types of electric charge?
The two types of electric charge are positive and negative. Positive charges repel each other, as do negative charges, while opposite charges attract each other.
What do you call a balance of a negative and positive charges?
A balance of negative and positive charges is called neutrality. This occurs when the total negative charge is equal to the total positive charge, resulting in a system that is electrically neutral.
What is it called when positive and negative charges have a potential difference?
Voltage.
Can ions have positive and negative charge?
An ion's charge will be either positive or negative, but not both. The charges are mutually exclusive. A positive ion is called a cation, and a negative ion is called an anion.
What do you call the particle with more positive charges than negative charges?
This would be called a CATION.
What is the scientific word for positive and negative charges?
positive and negative charges.... there is no other term... unless you want to get technical and describe what is happening in the metals Protons are positive Electrons are negative BTW neutrons are neutral OR You could also be talking about what ^ is talking about those >I think< are called cathodes and anodes
What type of energy is carried by moving negative charges?
That is the electric energy. It is called the electricity
Why positive charges are called sources and negative are called sink?
Old (very old) tradition, when electricity was assumed to flow from positive to negative. (They hadn't figured out electrons yet.)
What is the separation of positive and negative charges due to electric field called?
static charge
Does a ion contain one or more positive or negative charges?
Yes, an ion is an atom or molecule that has gained or lost one or more electrons, resulting in a positive or negative charge. A positive ion is called a cation, while a negative ion is called an anion.
What is a buildup of electric charges called?
A buildup of electric charges is called static electricity. This occurs when there is an imbalance of positive and negative charges on an object, leading to the potential for a discharge of electricity.
