Hello, Welcome to CurlyArrows Learn Chemistry with Sibi. In today's episode, I will answer
How does an atom become negatively charged?
Before I begin to answer this question, we must know one basic thing about an atom and that is, an atom is made of three main components- protons, neutrons, and electrons.
The charge for an atom can come from two sources: positively charged protons in its nucleus and negatively charged electrons outside the nucleus. So, the atom is considered neutral when there is a balance between the positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons. Like +1 and -1 give you a zero.
