Why do electron clouds repel?
Yes, electron clouds have a negative charge. The electrons make up electron clouds (naturally) and the electron carries a negative electrostatic charge. Since electrons carry a negative electrostatic charge, and, by a fundamental principle of electrostatics like charges repel each other, the electrons don't like each other. That's one of the guiding principles behind electron spin and the structure of electron orbitals in chemistry and biochemistry. The big fat positive charge on the nucleus captures the electrons, but the electrons have to decide amongst themselves how they're gonna get along out in the electron shells. And they do. Is it any wonder that electron shell structures rule most of chemistry?
Does an electron or proton have a larger charge?
No. The electron and proton have the same amount of charge. Its just that the electron's charge is negative and the proton's charge is positive.
Is the charge of a electron always equal to the charge on a neutron?
The charge on an electron is never equal to the charge on a neutron. An electron carries one negative charge and a neutron has no net charge.
The charge on an electron?
The charge on an electron is -1.602 x 10^-19 coulombs.
Does positron have a negative charge?
A POSITron has a POSITive charge, hence the name. A positron is an anti-electron; since the electron has a negative charge, the positron has a positive charge.A POSITron has a POSITive charge, hence the name.

Why does an electron repel a?
An electron repels another electron because they both have a negative charge. Like charges repel each other due to the fundamental principle of electrostatic force.
What type of charge does an electron carry?
Negative charge
In a hydrogen atom an electron revolves around a proton Which of these two exerts a greater electrostatic force on the other?
The proton exerts a greater electrostatic force on the electron in a hydrogen atom. This is because the proton has a much larger mass and positive charge compared to the much smaller mass and negative charge of the electron.
Electrostatic Charge of iodide?
Iodide ions have a negative charge of -1 due to the gain of an extra electron by an iodine atom. This charge results from the imbalance of protons (positive charge) and electrons (negative charge) in the ion.
Does nylon have an electrostatic charge?
when your clothes rub against your skin an electrostatic charge is made.
What type of particle in an atom has a negative charge?
the electron
What is electrostatic charges?
Charge can also be present on insulators and because these materials do not allow the charge to flow, this is called electrostatic charge
Is electrostatic force charge independent of mass?
Yes, electrostatic force is charge dependent and independent of mass. The force between two charged objects is determined by the magnitude of the charges and the distance between them, not by the mass of the objects.
What type of charge does an ion have when an atom gains an electron?
Negative.
What type of charge does an atom have when it gaines an electron?
Electrons are negatively charged particles. A neutrally charged atom which gains an electron will gain a negative charge.
What type of electric charge does a electron have?
They are negatively charged particles. electrons are found inside an atom, outside its nucleus.
How are electrostatic force and charge related?
Electrostatic force is the force that exists between charged objects. The strength of this force depends on the amount of charge on the objects. The greater the charge, the stronger the electrostatic force between them.
