What else can I help you with?
Is an electron the overall charge of an atom?
No.. The overall charge of an atom is neutron because it's balanced :)
Electrical factor of a part of the atom?
The electrical factor of an atom is determined by the number of protons in its nucleus, which defines its atomic number. The protons carry a positive charge, which is balanced by an equal number of negatively charged electrons in a stable atom. This balance between positive protons and negative electrons gives the atom its overall neutral charge.
Where do charges come from?
Charges come from the imbalance of protons and electrons in an atom. Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and when these charges are not balanced in an atom, it becomes charged. This imbalance can result from the gain or loss of electrons in a process known as ionization.
How is it possible for an atom to have no charge even though it is made up of protons neutrons and electrons?
This occurs because the absolute value of the positive charge of the protons, which are concentrated in the nucleus of the atom, is offset by the negative charge of the electrons also in the atom but more diffusely located outside the nucleus. The absolute values of the charge on a proton and the charge on an electron are equal, but the charge on protons is positive and that on electrons is negative. If an atomic size entity contains no electrons, it is not an atom but a positive ion.
The number of protons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of what?
In a electrically neutral atom, the number of positive charges in the atom's nucleus (with one charge being held on each proton in the nucleus), is balanced out by the number of negative charges present in the electron cloud round the nucleus (with one charge being held on each electron in the cloud). This means that in a neutral atom the number of Protons = the number of Electrons.
Is an electron the overall charge of an atom?
No.. The overall charge of an atom is neutron because it's balanced :)
What atom doesn't carry a charge?
Carrying charge means it is an ION, not an atom
What is the charge Cu3N?
The charge of Cu3N is 0, as the compound has a neutral overall charge. Each copper atom has a +1 charge, and each nitrogen atom has a -3 charge, leading to a balanced compound with no net charge.
What is the charge of an unbonded atom?
An unbonded atom has a neutral charge, meaning it has an equal number of protons and electrons. The positive charge of the protons is balanced by the negative charge of the electrons, resulting in a net charge of zero.
Why are a neutral atoms positive and negative charges balanced?
Neutral atoms have an equal number of protons and electrons. Protons carry a positive charge, while electrons carry a negative charge. The positive charge of the protons is balanced out by the negative charge of the electrons, resulting in an overall neutral charge for the atom.
If this atom has a balanced charge how many protons would you expect to find in this atom?
If an atom has a balanced charge, it means that the number of protons equals the number of electrons. So, you would expect to find the same number of protons as the atomic number of the element.
In the atom which is usually electrically neutral?
The atom is usually electrically neutral because the number of protons, which carry a positive charge, is equal to the number of electrons, which carry a negative charge. The positive charge from the protons is balanced out by the negative charge from the electrons, resulting in an overall neutral charge for the atom.
19 electrons what is the atom's electrical charge?
If you don't specify what element you are talking about, we have no way of knowing the charge of an atom with 19 electrons.
Does an atom have electirc charge?
An atom does not have an overall electrical charge, because the positive charges in the nucleus are balanced by the negative charges in the electron cloud around the nucleus. When an atom loses or gains an electron, it is called an "ion".
What charge is on acceptor atom?
If I understand it right, an acceptor atom is that one which accepts the electrons, then it has positive charge and thus it is able to attract the negatively charged electrons.
What is the oxidation state of an individual phosphorus atom in PO33 and minus?
In PO3^3-, the oxidation state of the phosphorus atom is +3. Each oxygen contributes -2 charge, so 3 oxygens would contribute a total charge of -6, which is balanced by the +3 charge of the phosphorus atom. In PO3^3-, the oxidation state of the phosphorus atom is +5. Each oxygen contributes -2 charge, so 3 oxygens contribute a total charge of -6. This is balanced by the +3 charge of the phosphorus atom, resulting in an oxidation state of +5.
An atom with an equal number of electrons and protons has no?
An atom with an equal number of electrons and protons has no net electrical charge, as the number of positive (proton) and negative (electron) charges are balanced.
