What is the overall charge of the atom since the atom contains positive charges and negative charges. how is that possible?

An atom is always neutral of charge, meaning ZERO. This is possible because of the equal numbers of (positive) protons and (negative) electrons, each plus charge is compensated by one (equally negative) minus charge.


Why plus and minus symbols are used to specify the electron charges?

Because protons have a positive charge, hence the plus sign, and electrons have a negative charge, hence the minus sign.

If Iron can be plus 2 or plus 3 how could you determine whether the iron in FeF3 is plus 2 or plus 3?

The compound FeF3 is a salt, meaning that it has a covalent bond. Split the anion and the cation apart to determine the charge. Since iron can be either +2 or +3, you have to look at the anion (F- in this case) and look at how many negative charges are there. If there are three F-, that means there are three negative charges. That should tell you which iron is involved in the bond.


An atom contains fewer electrons than protons has as negative ionic charge?

Electrons have a negative charge, and protons have a positive charge. If i have more protons(plus charges) than electrons(minus charges) overall the atom will have a positive charge(mabye +1 or +2 etc....depending how many more protons there are compared to electrons) If there are more electrons(minus charges) than protons(plus charges) then overall the atom will have a negative charge(mabye -1 or -2 etc....depending how many more electrons there are compared to protons) These charged atoms are known as ions.


What is a negitive plus a negitive?

A negative plus a negative is a negative because a negative plus a negative is the same thing as a negative minus a positive number.


What does a negative number plus a negative number equal?
