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.
What would happen to an object if number of protons and electrons are not equal?
You get charge discrepancies in the atom. So an atom that has more electrons than protons (say a chlorine anion) will have a net, negative charge. An atom that has more protons than electrons will have a net positive charge. A charged particle is more reactive than a neutral one.
Does the sum of the protons in an atom equal the sum of the electrons?
Protons minus neutrons doesn't mean anything in chemistry. Protons plus neutrons gives the mass number. Protons minus electrons gives you the charge of an atom(ion). The number of protons are equal to the number of electrons in a neutral atom and the proton number is equivalent to the atomic number.
Subatomic particle that defines the element?
Protons, electrons and neutrons
What is the movement of electrons to one part of an object by the electric field of another object?
Well to answer this question would first require a brief explanation of atoms. Atoms consist of 3 particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons have a positive charge. Electrons have a negative charge. Neutrons have no charge. A basic atom will have the same number of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Certain atoms have tendencies to appear in nature as what are known as ions. An ion is an atom that either has extra electrons or lacks electrons. When an atom lacks electrons, it gains a positive charge. When an atom has extra electrons, it gains a negative charge. The attraction between objects comes from these positive and negative ions. The positive ions have lost electrons and, therefore, are looking for more electrons. Since the negative ions have a surplus of electrons, they are looking to give away electrons. This is what causes them to seek each other out.
What has to be true about the protons and the electrons on an atom that is neutrral?
In any atom,there are protons, neutrons and electrons. As the name would suggest, neutrons carry no charge. Protons carry a positive charge and electrons carry a negative charge. So in an atom that has no charge there has to be an equal number of protons and electrons.
If an atom has 19 protons and 20 neutrons how many electrons would it have?
Electrons carry a negative charge and protons carry a positive charge. Therefore, if an atom is to be neutral it must have equal numbers of protons and neutrons. Consequently, if an atom has 19 protons and is neutral it must have 19 electrons.
How many protons neutrons and electron respectively does 127 Iodine with negative charge?
Iodine has 53 protons. Iodine 127 has 74 neutrons. With a negative charge, it would have an extra electron, meaning it would have 54 electrons.
If an atom has 18 protons 15 neutrons and 22 electrons what is the atoms electrical charge?
If an atom has 15 protons 12 neutrons and 16 electrons, the neutrons have absolutely nothing to do with the electrical charge. Having one more electron than protons would determine the electrical charge of the atom. The atom would have a charge of -1. The extra electron would give it a negative charge.
If the nucleus had seventeen protons and nineteen neutrons how many electrons would the atom have?
An element with seventeen protons 9and no charge) would have seventeen electrons as well. If the element were an ion, it would have more or less electrons, depending on its charge.
What is the charge on an atom that has five protons nine neutrons and seven electrons?
It would have a negative charge, since the number of electrons - that have approximately the same amount of negative charge as the proton's positive charge in magnitude - is more than the number of protons. Neutrons have no charge (i.e. neutral).
What three major parts of a atom?
The three constituents that make an atom are protons, neutrons, and electrons.
If neutrons are found in the nucleus what charge will be on the nucleus?
Neutrons have zero charge, so a nucleus with 5 protons and 5 neutrons has the same charge as a nucleus with 5 protons and 6 neutrons: the charge on both is +5.Electrons have a negative charge, so if you had 5 protons, 5 neutrons and 5 electrons, the net charge would be 0. (But electrons aren't found inside the nucleus; they "orbit" around it. Their "orbits" are crazy complicated and aren't exactly orbits the way planets have--but that's a different question.)
If someone picks up an excess of electrons while walking across a carpet their charge would be?
negative protons are positively charged neutrons are neutral electrons are negative the masses of neutrons and protons are approximately equal and electrons, which "orbit" around the nucleus (the protons and neutrons) are much smaller mass-wise protons and electrons charges are equal and opposite
What is the total charge if you have 14 protons 14 neutrons and 12 electrons?
If the atom is stable and neutral, it will have 14 electrons. If it has a positive charge it will have less electrons, and if it has a negative charge it will have more electrons.
How many protons neutrons and electrons would the isotope O-17 have?
It would have 8 protons, 9 neutrons and 8 electrons.
An atom is an ion when the what and what are not balanced?
Since an ion is a charged particle it would have to be when the protons and electrons are not balanced(a different number of protons and electrons) This would be the only way to get a positive or negative charge since neutrons have no charge anyway.
