What else can I help you with?
Negitivly charged particle in an atom?
its called an electron positively charged particles in a atom are called protons
What do you call an element that has lost an electron?
Elements that have gained or lost an electrons are called IONS. Ones that gained electrons (non-metals) and are therefore negatively charged, and known as ANIONS, and those that lost electrons (metals), are positively charged and known as CATIONS
What are Atoms that have lost or gained called?
Atoms that have lost or gained electron(s) are called ions. If they are positively charged (lost an electron(s)), they are called cations. If they are negatively charged (gained an electron(s), they are called anions.
What happens when an atom gains an electron when it loses an electron?
It become an ion, positively charged when it loses an electron (called a cation, e.g. Na+) or negatively charged when it gains an electron (called a anion, e.g. Cl-).
What is an atom when it looses an electron?
When an atom loses an electron, it becomes positively charged and is called a cation. This loss of an electron changes the balance between protons and electrons, resulting in a net positive charge.
Negitivly charged particle in an atom?

Is an electron positively or negatively charged?
An electron is negatively charged.
If an atom losses an electron it will be positive and called a what?
If an atom loses an electron, it becomes positively charged and is called a cation. This occurs because the number of positively charged protons in the nucleus is greater than the number of negatively charged electrons.

An object that is positively charge is called?
A positively charged particle is called a proton. A negatively charged particle is called an electron.
What is an atom when it looses an electron?
When an atom loses an electron, it becomes positively charged and is called a cation. This loss of an electron changes the balance between protons and electrons, resulting in a net positive charge.
What happens when a atom losses an electron?
It becomes a positively charged Ion called a cation.
What is it when you add or subtract an electron to an atom?
When you add an electron to an atom, the atom becomes negatively charged and is called an anion. When you subtract an electron from an atom, the atom becomes positively charged and is called a cation.
What soes an atom become when it losses or get an electron?
If it looses an electron, it becomes positively charged. If it gains one, it becomes negatively charged. These charged species are collectively called ions.
What happens to an atom if it loses an electron?
If an atom gains an electron, it becomes an anion, which is negative. Anions are larger than the original atom because of the added electrons. N + electron(-) --> N(-) If an atom loses an electron, it becomes a cation and positively charged. Cations are smaller than the original atom because of the lost electrons. N(2+) = cation
