A neutron because it has a neutral charge. An uncharged atom is just called by its name, e.g. a Silver or an Iron atom. A charged atom is called an Ion: Cations are positively charged and Anions are negatively charged.
A neutron is subatomic particle, not an atom. Atoms consist of neutral neutrons, negatively charged electrons, and positively charged protons.
An atom with an electrical charge is called an ion.
the positively charged part of an atom is called proton
Protons of an atom carry a positive charge. Electrons carry a negative charge. Neutrons carry no charge at all, but they are part of the atom.
When an atom is no longer neutral and has gained or lost electrons, it is called an ion. An atom that has gained electrons will have a negative charge (an anion), while an atom that has lost electrons will have a positive charge (a cation).
An ion. if the charge is positive, it is know as a cation and if the charge is negative , it is known as an anion.
An atom with an electrical charge is called an ion.
the positively charged part of an atom is called proton
When an atom has an electric charge it is called an ion.
When an atom has an electric charge it is called an ion.
Protons of an atom carry a positive charge. Electrons carry a negative charge. Neutrons carry no charge at all, but they are part of the atom.
A charged atom is called an ion.If it has more protons then electrons, it has a positive charge.If it has more electrons than protons, it has a negative charge.
An atom is called an ion if there is a charge on it - positive or negative.
a particle with a negative charge in an atom is an electron
An atom with a charge (either positive or negative) is called an "ion." An ion with a positive charge is called a "cation" and an ion with a negative charge is called an "anion ."
Ion
When an atom is no longer neutral and has gained or lost electrons, it is called an ion. An atom that has gained electrons will have a negative charge (an anion), while an atom that has lost electrons will have a positive charge (a cation).
An atom with positive charge is cation.An atom with negative charge is anion.
