This atom hasn't an electrical charge.
You shouldn't use terms like "outer level", because they're confusing. It could potentially mean at least two things, specified more precisely below. The highest occupied energy level of a ground state neutral carbon atom, the 2p level, has two electrons. The number of electrons in a ground state neutral carbon atom that have a principal quantum number of 2 (the highest associated with any electrons in such an atom) is four.
when something is in the ground^No. That is totally incorrect.Basically, a ground state electron is when the atom/element is not being surged through with heat or electricity. Basically, it's the atom's normal electron configuration. So NA [Sodium]'s ground state would be shown as : 1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s1.The opposite is when it's in it's excited state. You can remember tell when an atom is in it's excited state when in the electron configuration, there is a huge jump, like 1s2,2s2,2p5, 3s2. This might have happened due to being exposed to heat and or electricity.In other words, ground state=normal, excited is, well, excited. XD
For a hydrogen-like atom with atomic number Z, the energy of the electron in the ground state can be calculated using the formula E = -Z^2 * 13.6 eV. For Z = 4, the energy would be E = -4^2 * 13.6 eV = -230.4 eV. Thus, the energy of the electron in the ground state of a hydrogen-like atom with Z = 4 would be -230.4 eV.
No. On its own oxygen is neutral. Its ion, the oxide ion, has a negative charge
"Complete atom" sounds like a neutral atom - same number of protons and electrons. If you add or remove some electrons, you will have a non-zero electric charge.

No, chlorine is not a neutral atom. It typically exists as a chlorine ion with a -1 charge, meaning it has gained an electron.
1. Atoms do not have energy levels unlike particles like electrons etc.2. The lowest energy for atoms will be 0 at absolute zero temp of 0 deg Kelvin.3. For electrons in all atoms lowest energy is that of 2 electrons nearest to the nucleus.

If an atom that emits a green proton when it decays to its ground state decays to an intermediate state instead it will emit a proton that is yellow/orange/red. The reason is that it will be a lower energy proton emitted and lower energy waves correspond to longer wavelengths like the ones that make up these colors.

Yes,when the neutral potential is at ground potential i.e., 0v.
A ground state is an outer orbital electron of an element that is at its lowest possible energy level. The electron in an excited state has a higher energy level than a ground state electron. The average distance from the nucleus is greater in the excited state than in the ground state.
Neutrons are the particles on an atom that have a neutral charge. They aren't positive like protons. They aren't negative like electrons
Chloride anion Cl- has the same electron configuration as Argon (its succeding noble gas) so:Cl- has 18 electrons configured like: 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s23p6
