Every element on the Periodic Table is electrically neutral because the number of positively charged protons in the nucleus is equal to the number of negatively charged electrons orbiting the nucleus. This balance of positive and negative charges ensures that the atom as a whole has no overall charge, making it electrically neutral.

What is the charge on every atom and why?
Every atom is electrically neutral because the number of positively charged protons in the nucleus is equal to the number of negatively charged electrons orbiting the nucleus. This balance of positive and negative charges results in an overall neutral charge for the atom.
What elements is it made of?
Atoms of elements are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. The number of protons is always the same for every atom of a given element. Thus, the number of electrons is also constant for a pure element (which is electrically neutral). However, the number of neutrons can vary; this variation leads to what are known as isotopes.
Why does a potassium ion have a positive charge?
Usually Potassium has a single positive charge, but if you put it in a vacume tube and hit it with electron beams of high voltage you can make it do what ever you want it to do.
What element has1s22s2 orbitals?
Each and every element after Lithium has these orbitals.
Every what has its own kind of atom?
Every element has its own kind of atom, identifiable from atoms of another element by its number of protons.
Is the number of protons and electrons equal in every element?
In a neutral atom the answer is yes. Sometimes atoms can be in charged states as a result of undergoing chemistry (oxidation or reduction) and in this case they can have more electrons than usual (and so they are negatively charged) or fewer (and so they are positively charged). These processes can be reversed so that the atoms are back to their neutral ground state. The number of protons is unique to the element. So a carbon with a missing proton isn't "carbon", it is a boron with an extra electron. Yes, the number of protons and electrons are equal in the atoms of every element. This is essential to maintain electric neutrality of the atoms. However, this rule doesn't apply to ions. Also, the number of protons or electrons is called the atomic number and is useful to place the elements in the periodic table.
What is the charge on every atom and why?
Every atom is electrically neutral because the number of positively charged protons in the nucleus is equal to the number of negatively charged electrons orbiting the nucleus. This balance of positive and negative charges results in an overall neutral charge for the atom.
If the mixture of electrically neutral how many more beta particles than alpha particles are in the balloon?
If a mixture is electrically neutral, for every alpha particle (which has a charge of +2), there must be two beta particles (each with a charge of -1) to balance the charges. So there are two more beta particles than alpha particles in the balloon.
What is the electric charge of the nucleus of every atom?
neutral
Why is the atom called electrically neutral?
its is neutral cuz every atom has negative electrons surrounding the nucleus which has a positive protons, each atom have the same number of protons and electrons so the cancel out each other, it becomes neutral, but there are things called positive ions and negative ions, they are atoms that looses or gains electron without the change of the protons
What does the nucleus of every element contain?
Every nucleus of every element contains at least 1 proton. Every element except hydrogen also contains neutrons.
Why does a wire that carries an electric current not become electrically charged?
To become electrically charged, a conductor must either have an excess of electrons (negatively charged) or a deficiency of electrons (positively charged). For every free electron moving around in a current-carrying conductor, there is a corresponding proton within the fixed atoms, so the conductor is neither negatively- nor positively-charged, but neutral.
What elements is it made of?
Atoms of elements are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. The number of protons is always the same for every atom of a given element. Thus, the number of electrons is also constant for a pure element (which is electrically neutral). However, the number of neutrons can vary; this variation leads to what are known as isotopes.
How many electrons are outside the nucleus?
The number of electrons outside the nucleus depends on the atomic number of the element. For neutral atoms, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus to maintain a balanced charge.
How many electrons can balance with the 1 proton?
One electron balances the charge on one proton. Their charges are equal and opposite.
Is the empty set an element of every set?
No. An empty set is a subset of every set but it is not an element of every set.
Is the null set an element of every set?
No, but it is a subset of every set.It is an element of the power set of every set.
