The net charge? I'll assume you mean total/overall charge seeing as I have never heard such term... In an atom the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons and that one proton has the same positive charge value as an electron does a negative charge value. So I'm assuming that all atoms have no charge, zero, none, squat. Non-ionized also means the atom hasn't suffered electron exchange, so a non-ionized atom is really just an atom (which is word redundancy). This is what I know from AS level Chemistry, so I don't know if it's the same thing as more advanced chemistry (for university or something). Hope I helped
What else can I help you with?
The charge of an unionized atom is?
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.
Charge of an 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.
If an atom has 5 protons and 7 electrons what is the charge of the atom?
its charge is 0. Protons have a positive charge, while electrons have a negative charge (neutrons have no charge at all). So ten protons will balance out ten electrons, making the net charge 0.
Is the procedure by which an atom is given a net charge by adding or taking way electron?
The process by which an atom is given a net charge by adding or removing electrons is called ionization. When an atom gains an electron, it becomes negatively charged (anion), and when it loses an electron, it becomes positively charged (cation).
What would the charge be if an atom gains an electron and why?
If an atom gains an electron, it will have a negative charge because electrons have a negative charge. The atom will now have more negatively charged electrons than positively charged protons, resulting in an overall negative charge.
What net charge does a sodium atom have?
A sodium atom has a net charge of zero. A sodium ion has a net charge of 1+.
Is the net charge of an atom always zero?
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.
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.
When does an atom have a net charge?
never
When a neutral atom captures a free electron what is the net charge on the atom?
The charge of an atom who captured a single elektron is - or -1
What is the property of an atom found by adding the total charge of protons to the total charge of electrons?
The property of an atom found by adding the total charge of protons to the total charge of electrons is the net charge of the atom. If the total charge of protons equals the total charge of electrons, the atom is neutral. If there is a difference between the two, the atom becomes either positively or negatively charged.
How is the net charge of an atom produced?
Atoms are neutral in charge
An ion is an atom with a net electrical charge due to .?
Gained or lost electron(s).
Is an atom with the same number of electrons and protons the electrical charge is?
The atom is neutral,, there is no net charge
Is an ion an atom that has a net charge?
Yes, an ion is an atom that has gained or lost electrons, resulting in a net positive or negative charge. This charge is due to the imbalance between the number of protons and electrons in the atom.
Which particles determine the net charge of an atom or ion and how do you calculate that charge?
The net charge of an atom or ion is determined by the balance of protons and electrons. Protons, which have a positive charge, and electrons, which have a negative charge, contribute to the overall charge of the atom. To calculate the net charge, subtract the number of electrons from the number of protons: ( \text{Net Charge} = \text{Protons} - \text{Electrons} ). If an atom has more protons than electrons, it is positively charged (cation), while more electrons than protons result in a negative charge (anion).
What happens to the charge plus or - of an atom when it gains electron?
An electron has a negative charge of 1.6E-19 Coulombs. This will subtract from the net charge of an atom, so the net charge will be less, assuming that a negative charge is less than a positive charge.
