Question

positive charge inside 2he4 atom is​

Answer 1

Answer:

The total positive charge inside 2He4 is zero.

Explanation:

• A negative charge is when there are more electrons than protons, a positive charge is when there are more protons than electrons, and a neutral charge is when there are equal numbers of electrons and protons.
• This balance between electrons and protons determines the net charge.
• Since neutrons are uncharged (neutral) particles, they have no bearing on how an atom is charged.
• In the case of helium, the nucleus is surrounded by two electrons and contains two protons.
• Each proton has a positive charge of one while each electron has a negative charge.
• The atom is referred to as neutral if the sum of the total positive charge and total negative charge equals zero.
• In the case of helium, 2 protons and 2 electrons will result in 2×(1) +2×(-1) = 0
• Therefore, the helium atom is neutral and the charge inside it is zero coulomb.
