Look at Periodic Table (see link).
Left side gives up electrons (positive ions)
Right side collects electrons (negative ions)
(Except far right - no reaction, no ions)

An atom has 11 protons 13 neutrons and 11 electrons What are possible isotopes of this atom?
An atom with 11 protons, 12 neutrons, and 11 electrons. B. An atom with 11 protons, 10 neutrons, and 11 electrons.An atom with 11 protons, 12 neutrons, and 11 electrons.
Term for an atom whose electrons have the lowest possible energies?
The correct answer would be ground state
Name 3 scientist who contributed to current knowledge of the atom and explain their contributions.?
Actually there are 4 scientists that contributed. The 4 scientists who contributed to current knowledge of the atom are John Dalton, William Crookes, J.J. Thomson, and Ernest Rutherford.
What was the first part of the atom to be discovered?
Its the electron! There short and sweet! Its the electron! There short and sweet!
Explain why the electrical charge on an atom is zero or neutral?
since an electron is a negatively charged particle and a proton is a positively charged particle the positive and negative charges will cancel each other so the electrical charge on atom is zero.
Explain how it is possible for an atom to have more than one bond?
This depends on the number of valence electrons.
EXPLAIN why it is not possible to determine the type of atom by knowing the charge of the atom?
Because charge only reveals the number of valence electrons of an atom while the identity of an atom also relies on the number of non-valence electrons.
If an atom has the same number of protons and neutrons is it most likely to bond with other atoms?
Yes, it is possible.
How do you explain an atom?
atom is the smallest particle of matter
How atom and molecules are important to cell processes explain?
why atom and molecules are important to cell processes explain
Did Bohr's model of the atom explain hydrogen's flammability?
Bohr's model of the atom doesn't explain hydrogen's flammability.
Which is larger a atom or a element explain?
an atom is larger than an element
How many possible atom arrangements are there for a molecule with 5 carbons with one ring?
For hydrocarbon molecules, the smallest possible ring contains 3 carbon atoms. This ring can be substituted with one ethyl group or two methyl groups. In a three carbon ring, all possible substitution positions are chemically equivalent. A four carbon atom-containing ring can be substituted with only one external carbon within the constraints given in the question, and all its positions of possible substitution are chemically equivalent. A five carbon atom-containing ring can not be substituted with any additional carbon atoms, within the constraints given in the question. Therefore, there are only four possible hydrocarbons within the constraints given in the question: ethyl cyclopropane, dimethyl cyclopropane, ethyl cyclobutane, and cyclopentane. There are many more possible atom arrangements if atoms of additional elements are allowed.
How did the scientists explain the relationship between the colors observed and the structure of the atom?
Q 3. How did the scientists explain the relationship between the colors observed and the structure of the atom?
What does the number of protons do to the atom?
The atom identity is given by the number of protons.
