Why do most colloids have electrical charges?

One of the most important properties of colloidal solutions is that colloidal particles posses a definite type of electrical charge. In a particular colloidal solution, all the colloidal particles carry the same type of charge, while the dispersion medium has an equal but opposite charge. Thus, the charge on colloidal particles is balanced by that of the dispersion medium and the colloidal solution as a whole is electrically neutral.


What is negligible and negative charge?

Negligible charge refers to a very small amount of electrical charge, often considered insignificant or irrelevant. Negative charge refers to a type of charge carried by electrons, which have an opposite polarity to positive charge.


Proton have a high or low charge?

A proton has a charge of +1 elementary charges. Whether you consider this "high" or "low" depends what you compare it with; it is certainly a small amount, compared to the units you deal with in everyday life, and compared to the derive SI unit for electrical charge (the coulomb).


A tiny particle with a positive charge?

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.


Which one particle has a mass of approximately atomic mass unit and a unit positive charge?

none of the particles are 1g. (g stands for gram which is about the weight of a small paperclip.) however the proton has a positive charge.

Positive and negative charges in cumulonimbus clouds?

During a storm small particles are propelled towards the top of the cloud by strong internal winds. The larger particles fall to the bottom of the cloud. This causes the top of the cloud to develop a strong positive charge, while the bottom of the cloud has a strong negative charge. This induces a positive charge on the ground. This combination is where there is a massive very rapid transfer of electrons, also known as lightning.


What are the different parts of an atom and what kind of charge does each part have?

Atoms are made of three main particles: protons, neutrons and electrons. Electrons have negative charge, are very small (even for subatomic particles) and orbit the center of the atom, which contains the protons and neutrons. Protons have positive charge, and are held by strong nuclear force to the neutrons, which are neutral (no charge).


The molecules of bases do not have an electrical charge?

Most bases are anioc particles: OH-, CO32- etc. Examples of neutral bases are ammonia, NH3, and (small) organic amines.


Can variable resistors store electrical charge?

NO. Variable capacitory can store a small charge


Why are skimmers turning orange in salt water pool?

A small electrical current is passing thru the salt water an it seems that the negative eletrical charge is passing from the skimmers being plastic an its possible from the spinning vortex created by the water pumps sucking are creating the positve electrical charge which is small but just enough to react with the salt in the pool an based on many studies with the larger negative charge an the small positive charge turned the water orange


What type of charge do alpha particles have?

The alpha particle is the nucleus of a helium atom and hence has 2 protons and 2 neutrons. The neutron is neutral and the proton has a +1 elementary charge. The alpha particle therefore has an elementary charge of +2
