What happens when an atom loses an electron?

• The atom becomes negatively charged because it has more protons than electrons.

• The atom becomes neutral because the electrons are replaced by neutrons.

• The atom becomes radioactive due to the imbalance of subatomic particles.

• The atom becomes positively charged because it has more protons than electrons.
