What else can I help you with?
What do you call the region of an atom in which electrons move?
The region of an atom in which the electrons move is called the electron shell, or electron cloud.
What is the nuclear charge in the 4th shell of an argon atom?
The nuclear charge in the 4th shell of an argon atom is +18, as argon has 18 protons in its nucleus. The nuclear charge is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
What charge does the electron cloud of every atom have?
In a neutral atom, the charge on the electron cloud is balanced by the carge on the atom's nucleus. The nucleus has a positive charge proportional to the number of protons in it. This attracts and holds the negatively charged electrons in the electron cloud. And in a neutral atom (not an ion), there will be as many electrons in the electron cloud as protons in the nucleus. The charges will balance.
What takes up most of the space of the atom?
The electron cloud or electron shell
What is the name of the part of the atom that has a negative charge?
The part of the atom that has a negative charge is the electron. Electrons are located in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus of an atom and contribute to the atom's overall negative charge.
What do you call the region of an atom in which electrons move?
The region of an atom in which the electrons move is called the electron shell, or electron cloud.

This attracts and holds the negatively charged electrons in the electron cloud. And in a neutral atom (not an ion), there will be as many electrons in the electron cloud as protons in the nucleus. The charges will balance.
How do positive and negative charges in the outer shell of an atom connect with each other?
The outer shell of an atom is populated by electrons, which have a negative charge. Protons, which have a positive charge hang out in the nucleus of the atom.
What are atoms respective charges?
Atoms can have a positive, negative, or neutral charge. Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons have no charge (neutral). The overall charge of an atom is determined by the balance of protons and electrons.
How can you tell if an atom has a negative charge?
you can tell an atom has a negative charge if its outer shell is not stable(happy)/full
What takes up most of the space of the atom?
The electron cloud or electron shell
What is in the cloud of negatively charge particles that surround an atom?
Electrons
What is the charge of the electron cloud in chlorine-37?
The charge of the electron cloud in a chlorine-37 atom is -17 (the number of protons in the nucleus). This is because an atom is electrically neutral, so the number of protons (positive charge) in the nucleus must be balanced by an equal number of electrons (negative charge) in the electron cloud.
What is the name of the part of the atom that has a negative charge?
The part of the atom that has a negative charge is the electron. Electrons are located in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus of an atom and contribute to the atom's overall negative charge.
Which part of an atom can be moved to charge a material?
The electrons on the outer shell
What and where is the charge in an atom?
Protons in the nucleus each have a positive charge, and electrons, surrounding the nucleus in the electron cloud, have a negative charge.
