A neutral atom hasn't an electrical charge.
The overall charge on He is 0. It is a noble element.
An atom is neutral, and therefore has an overall charge of zero. If an atom either loses or gains electrons through a chemical reaction, or loses protons through radioactive decay, so that it then has an overall charge, it is no longer considered to be an atom but is classified as an ion.
The neutron is the particle of an atom that has zero charge. It is located in the nucleus along with protons and contributes to the overall mass of the atom without affecting its charge.
No. Electrons possess a negative charge, therefore an atom with an excess of electrons will have an overall negative charge.
No.. The overall charge of an atom is neutron because it's balanced :)
A neutral atom hasn't an electrical charge.
The overall charge of an aluminum atom is neutral, as it has an equal number of protons (positive charge) and electrons (negative charge). A neutral atom of aluminum has 13 protons and 13 electrons.
The overall charge on He is 0. It is a noble element.
The overall charge of any atom is 0. This is because the overall charge is number of protons - number of electrons. For every atom the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons so it is 0.

Yes, an atom can have charge. Atoms consist of protons, which have a positive charge, neutrons, which have no charge, and electrons, which have a negative charge. The overall charge of an atom depends on the balance of these particles.
(Atomic number) - (Number of electrons present) = (overall electrical charge of atom)
The overall charge of any atom is 0. This is because the overall charge is number of protons - number of electrons. For every atom the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons so it is 0.
zero .. such an atom is neutral. No net charge
The overall charge of an atom with 3 extra electrons would be -3. Each electron has a negative charge of -1, so 3 extra electrons would result in an overall negative charge.
