If it has a positive charge it is a Cation. If it has a negative charge it is an Anion.
The charge of an unionized atom is neutral, meaning it has an equal number of protons and electrons. Protons carry a positive charge, while electrons carry a negative charge that balances out the positive charge of the protons, resulting in a net charge of zero for the atom.
The charge of an atom is determined by the balance of protons and electrons it contains. Protons carry a positive charge while electrons carry a negative charge. When an atom has an equal number of protons and electrons, it is electrically neutral. If an atom gains or loses electrons, it becomes an ion with a net positive or negative charge.
The particles that affect the charge of an atom or ion are electrons and protons. Electrons have a negative charge and protons have a positive charge. The number of electrons and protons in an atom or ion determines its overall charge.
No.. The overall charge of an atom is neutron because it's balanced :)
The subatomic particle in an atom that has no charge is called a neutron. Neutrons are found in the nucleus of an atom along with protons, which have a positive charge, and electrons, which have a negative charge.
A ion
An atom with an electrical charge is called an ion.
The net charge of an atom is always zero, because if an atom gains or loses electrons, causing it to acquire a net charge, we then call it an ion, rather than an atom.
The core at the center of an atom is called the nucleus. It contains protons, which have positive charge, and neutrons, which contribute to the mass of the atom.
An atom with an overall positive charge is called a cation. Cations are formed when an atom loses electrons, leaving it with fewer electrons than protons, resulting in a net positive charge.
Electrons are the negatively charged sub atomic particles.
what changes the charge of the atom
A neutral atom will have a charge of ZERO
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.
An atom with positive charge is cation.An atom with negative charge is anion.
When an atom has an electric charge it is called an ion.
An ion is an atom with a positive or negative charge.
