All atoms are electically neutral at the ordinary state, unless they enter in a chemical reaction so, either they lose electrones from the outer most energy level and become +ve Ion , or gain one or more electron and become -ve Ion..
P.S: The Atom is electrically neutral because the number of +ve protons inside the nucleus = the number of -ve electons in the energy levels

An atom consists of a dense nucleus of positively-charged protons and electrically-neutral neutrons, surrounded by a much larger electron cloud consisting of negatively-charged electrons.

All atoms tends to be neutral
The atomic number of an atom, means that the number of protons is equal to the number of electros.
Ej Silicon, Atomic number 32, it means that has 32 protons in the nucleos and 32 electros orbiting.
If an Atom gains an electron it becames an Negative Ion
Because has more electros than protons.
If an Atom lose an electron it becames a Positive Ion
Because has more Protons than electros.
But always tends to be neutral.
Good Luck
ATOMS ALWAYS TENDS TO BE IN A ESTABLE CONDITION, NUMBER OF PROTONS = TO NUMBER OF ELECTROS, BUT IT IS EASE FOR CONDUCTOR MATERIALS TO GAIN OR LOSE ALECTRONS.
NOT FOR INSULATORS MATERIAL, THEY DO NOT GAIN OR LOSE ELECTRONES, THAT IS WHY THEY DO NOT CONDUCT.

They are neutral in their natural states. However, they can become either positively or negatively charged by donating or accepting an electron from another atom.

all of us comprehend THAT A physique COTAINS equivalent sort of PROTONS AND ELECTRONS , THIS flow OF ELECTRONS in common terms cause them to certainly OR NEGATIVELY CHARGED. assume THERE ARE 2 bodies, while they're RUBBED WITH one yet another THEN considered one of THEM WILL LOSE ELECTRONS(in common terms ELECTRONS GET TRANSFERRED because of the fact the burden OF ELECTRONS is approximately one thousand situations under PROTONS)and those ELECTRONS GET TRANSFERRED TO different SUBSTANCE.so as that physique WHICH generic ELECTRONS gets NEGATIVELY CHARGED (via way over adverse ELECTRONS IN THEM)AND THE DONATOR physique gets POSIIVELY CHARGED.(because of the fact the ELECTRONS that are adverse have been DONATED AND PROTONS ARE greater IN sort and because PROTON ARE advantageous costs THAT physique gets certainly CHARGED)

neutral...but get a charge if they give or take electrons to achieve inert gas configuration.
