Atoms have an equal number of electrons and protons so are electrically neutral. Atoms that have a net electrical charge are known as "ions". Positive ions - have "missing" electrons Negative ions - have "excess" electrons 3. The net charge of an object can be found be summing the individual charges. Since charge is quantized, all net charges are just an integer multiple of the elementary charge. q-ne where q is the net charge and n is an integer. For example, sodium can be a +1 ion and chlorine can be a -1 ion. What does this mean concerning their charge and structure? Revised 1/20 L2 D Ctlo But, what if you want to look at larger objects that are charged; e.g., objects made up of a huge number of atoms/molecules. How do these objects become charged?
