3. An atom is electrically neutral, on loss or
jain of electrons why does it become charged?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

when atom is neutral it has a no charge, looses electron has positive charge, gains electron gets negative charge

Explanation:

protons  have positive charges (+)

electrons have negative charges (-)

when an atom is neutral is means no additional electron is lost or gain

When an atom has a neutral charge it has neither too much or too little electrons  since it has not gained or lost any thus the zero charge ( no charge)

When an atom loses an electron since its losing an electron that has a negative charge it becomes a bit more positive so thus the positive charge

When the atom gains an electron it gains a bit more negativity then it had so its going to have a negative charge
