That depends on the number of protons and electrons present. One electron has a charge of minus one. A proton has a charge of plus one. Add charges to arrive at the charge of the atom total.
Example: an H+ ion consists of a single proton, and has no electrons. Its charge therefore is +1.
Hydrogen has a positive charge.
An atom with an electrical charge is called an ion.
Such an atom would be neutral - no electric charge.
The neutrons in its nucleus
Protons have a positive charge. Electrons have a negative charge.
Hydrogen has a positive charge.
An atom with an electrical charge is called an ion.
A negative charge that exists because of a covalent bond with hydrogen
the particles outside nucleus are electrons. and they are negatively charged
When an atom has an electric charge it is called an ion.
An ion
When an atom has an electric charge it is called an ion.
That is called a neutral atom, because it has no electric charge. If the atom has an electric charge (i.e., it has more protons than electrons, or more electrons than protons), it is called an ion.That is called a neutral atom, because it has no electric charge.

The atomic number, which is the number of protons in the nucleus, determines what kind of atom it is.
An ion.
A electric
An atom that is not an ion has no electric charge. If it is particles that make up the atom you speak of, the nucleus houses the neutron; an elementary particle with zero charge.
