What is the Charge of a neutral atom after 1 electron is taken away?

+1

Explanation:

An atom is considered to be neutral before losing or gaining any electrons. They are neutral in charge because they initially have the same number of protons (with charge of +1 each) and electrons (with a charge of -1 each).

Consider charge in an electron like a balance, with positively charged protons on one side and negatively charged electrons on the other. When you have the same number of each, there is equal amounts of positive and negative charge so the atom is neutral with a charge of zero.

For example, potassium has 19 protons, and 19 electrons. This means it has  19 positive charges and 19 negative charges. If you take away one electron, it now has 19 positive charges and 18 negative charges. So there is one more positive charge than negative, which means it is now an ion (a charged atom) with a charge of +1.

number of molecules / avogadro's number * molecule molecular = mass

explanation:

we define a gram-molecular weight as the mass of one mole of any element or compound. a mole contains avogadro's number of units (molecules) –  

6.022

x

10

23

. so, dividing the number of molecules by avogadro's number gives us the number of moles. multiplying that by the molecular weight gives us the mass. from the periodic table we find the gram-molecular weight of u to be238 and of f to be19. so,  

u

f

6

will have a gram-molecular weight of 352g.

it means there are 3 atoms of oxygen
