In an atom, the positive charges are found in the nucleus. The nucleus contains protons and neutrons. The protons are positively charged while the neutrons are neutral.
The negative charges can be found in the electrons which revolve around the nucleus.
In a neutral atom, the number of positive charges (protons) is equal to the number of negative charges (electrons).

What are the negative and positive parts of an atom?
Negative: The negative part of an atom is the electrons which have a negative charge and orbit around the nucleus. Positive: The positive part of an atom is the nucleus which contains protons with a positive charge.
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.
What is the difference between positive and negative charge?
Positive charge refers to an excess of protons in an atom, giving it a positive electrical charge. Negative charge, on the other hand, results from an excess of electrons in an atom, giving it a negative electrical charge. These charges interact differently in electrical fields, with positive charges attracting negative charges and repelling other positive charges.
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.
What subatomic particle has an electric charge?
electron-negative, proton-positive, neutron-neutral
Is an atom a negative charge or a positive charge?
An atom with positive charge is cation.An atom with negative charge is anion.
What parts of the atom have a positive charge?
Parts of an atom: - protons - located in the nucleus - have a positive charge - neutrons - located in the nucleus - have a neutral or no charge - electrons - are in orbit around the nucleus - have a negative charge
What is an atom with a positive charge or negative charge called?
A charged atom is called an ion.If it has more protons then electrons, it has a positive charge.If it has more electrons than protons, it has a negative charge.
Is an ion atom with a charge?
An ion is an atom with a positive or negative charge.
What is the atom which has positive and negative charge?
Positive charge: cationNegative charge: anion
Is the charge of a nucleus positive negative or zero The charge of an atom?
The charge of a nucleus is positive, as it contains protons which have a positive charge. The charge of an atom overall is neutral, as the number of protons (positive charge) is equal to the number of electrons (negative charge) in a neutral atom.
What are the negative and positive parts of an atom?
Negative: The negative part of an atom is the electrons which have a negative charge and orbit around the nucleus. Positive: The positive part of an atom is the nucleus which contains protons with a positive charge.
Does an entire atom has a positive or negative charge?
Positive
What part of an atom has a negative charge and what was a positive charge?
electrons = negative charge protons = positive charge neutrons = neutral charge
Does the electon of a atom have a positive charge?
no. electrons have negative charge. protons have positive charge
When an atom is negative or positive?
An atom is negative when there are more electrons which gives it that negative charge. An atom is positive when there are less electrons than protons.
Is positive charge spread equally over an atom?
No, positive charge is concentrated in the nucleus of an atom, which contains protons. Electrons, carrying negative charge, are located in energy levels surrounding the nucleus. The positive charge of the protons is concentrated at the center of the atom.
