Sulfur normally has 16 electrons, so....,
S 2-

A 2 - charge on the anion.
A nitrogen ion with 10 electrons would have a charge of +3, as nitrogen normally has 7 electrons and a neutral nitrogen ion would have 7 electrons. By having 10 electrons, it has lost 3 electrons, resulting in a +3 charge.
The charge on a magnesium ion with 10 electrons (Mg2+) is +2.
Magnesium has 12 protons, so if there are only 10 electrons, then it will have a +2 charge.
Beryllium is element 4, so the "neutral" atom would have 4 protons and 4 electrons. In order to have a "-2" charge, it would need 6 electrons.
You would need 2 more electrons to make a calcium ion neutral, since calcium has 20 protons (+20 charge) and 18 electrons (-18 charge), resulting in an overall +2 charge. Adding 2 more electrons would balance out the charge to become neutral.
Neutrons are particles of no charge. Electrons have negative charge.
The net charge of the particle would be +1, since protons have a charge of +1 and electrons have a charge of -1. Subtracting the total negative charge from the total positive charge gives a net positive charge of +1.
The particle would be a positively charged subatomic particle, such as a proton. This particle would have a small mass and would be found within the nucleus of an atom. Its positive charge would attract negatively charged particles like electrons.
Since an ion is a charged particle it would have to be when the protons and electrons are not balanced(a different number of protons and electrons) This would be the only way to get a positive or negative charge since neutrons have no charge anyway.
The electrons would attract to the dust, thus making the dust have a negative charge. After this the dust will stick to any neutral object due to this new charge.
A particle with 11 protons and 10 electrons would be an ion with a charge of +1. This means it has one more proton than electron, giving it an overall positive charge.
The subatomic particle that has a positive charge is called a proton. A proton can be found in the nucleus, the centre of the atom. Around the nucleus negative charged particles, called electrons, revolve at various speeds.
To find the number of electrons in a charge, you divide the charge by the charge of a single election. In this case it would be: -1C/(-1.6x1o^-19)=6.25x10^18 So 6.25x10^18 electrons are necessary to produce a charge of 1 C
Add up, knowing that p's are Positive and e's are nEgative: +116p(= '+') + 15e(= '-') makes (+16) + (-15) = +1So the overall charge of this 'particle' is +1(If it were a chemical particle it would have been the NON-existing S+ ion)
The nucleus of an atom has a positive charge. This is because the nucleus contains both protons, which have a positive charge, and neutrons, which have no charge. The electrons, which have a negative charge are found in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus.
Electrons are subatomic particles that always have a charge of -1 elementary charge. If they were to have no charge, they would not be electrons.
A neutral atom could become a positively charged particle through the loss of one or more electrons. When an atom loses electrons, it becomes positively charged because there are more protons than electrons in the atom, creating an overall positive charge.
