Basically the nonmetals. Many of them receive electrons, like oxygen, nitrogen, selenium, tellurium, and many others.
Atoms become positively charged when they have a deficit of electrons. Similarly, they become negatively charged when they have a surplus of electrons. Neutral charge, the non-ionized state, is when the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons.
Oh, dude, when you rub a rod with nylon, it transfers some of its electrons to the rod, giving it a negative charge. This is because nylon has a higher affinity for electrons than the rod. So yeah, the rod gets all charged up and ready to party with some static electricity.
An atom with more electrons than protons is usually found in a chemical bond. They are called "anions", or negatively charged ions. (An ion is any atom that is either positively charged or negatively charged.) They are negatively charged because electrons are negatively charged.Anions are usually to always found in chemical bonds because all (stable, at least) elements are neutral, or have no charge. Why are they ever found in chemical bonds, you ask? Well, think about the Noble Gases, the group all the way on the right of the periodic table. The Noble Gases are completely inert, or they almost never react with anything. That all has to do with the amount of electrons they have. Essentially, all elements want to be like the Noble Gases. They share or lend electrons to other elements. To be more specific, metals give electrons and nonmetals receive electrons in chemical bonding. So, nonmetals receive more electrons than normal and they become like the Noble Gases, and that gives them a negative charge.
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.
Yes, atoms become positively or negatively charged when they lose an Ion. In this frame of reference, we have the element nitrogen with 7 protons and 7 electrons. When a charged Ion is absorbed out of it's presently neutral state, it gains an electrical charge. It becomes positively charged if an electron is pulled, because there are more protons (which are positively charged), and vice versa.
Positively charged objects gain electrons to become negatively charged. Negatively charged objects lose electrons to become positively charged. This exchange of electrons creates an imbalance of positive and negative charges, leading to the attraction between the objects.
Atoms become positively charged when they have a deficit of electrons. Similarly, they become negatively charged when they have a surplus of electrons. Neutral charge, the non-ionized state, is when the number of electrons is the same as the number of protons.
An atom can become positively charged by losing an electron, resulting in more protons than electrons. Conversely, an atom can become negatively charged by gaining an electron, which creates an excess of electrons compared to protons.
if some of the positive charges have been either chemically removed or bonded together, that is how they become negatively charged...................... xoxo
If the atom was neutral, it becomes an anion. Since electrons have a (-) charge
To become negatively charged, an object must gain electrons from another object
It will become negative by electron addition, because electrons are negatively charged, -1. It is then called an ion.
An object becomes negatively charged by gaining electrons. Electrons are negatively charged particles that can move from one object to another, causing an imbalance of charge and resulting in the object becoming negatively charged.
Water can become negatively charged when it gains extra electrons, which are negatively charged particles. This can happen through processes like ionization or interaction with other charged particles.
When negatively charged electrons move from one material to another, the overall charge on each material can become more positive or negative depending on the relative movement of electrons. For instance, if electrons leave a material, it can become positively charged, and if electrons are gained, the material can become negatively charged. This transfer of electrons can result in materials having different net charges.
If an atom gains three electrons, it will become negatively charged because electrons are negatively charged particles. This will result in the formation of a negatively charged ion. The number of protons in the nucleus of the atom will still determine its atomic number and identity.
When a material gains electrons, it becomes negatively charged. This is because it now has more negatively charged electrons than positively charged protons. The excess electrons will repel each other and attract positive charges in the environment.
