If the atom gains an extra electron it contains more electrons than protons and has an overall negative electrical charge. When an atom has an imbalance of electrons and protons it is said to be ionized. An atom with a positive charge is a called a positive ion.

When an atom has an imbalance between protons and electrons it is considered unstable, or radioactive. Unstable atoms are called radioisotopes or radionuclides. In the process of achieving stability a part of the nucleus of a radioisotope disintegrates and emits particles and energy.

Rubbed materials show an attraction or repulsion to each other due to a charge in an atom, cause by dislodged electrons. ... If this happens, the atom still retains its chemical identity, but an important imbalance occurs. Electrons and protons are unique in the fact that they are attracted to one another over a distance.

When an atom has an imbalance of protons and electrons it will try to get back into balance by attracting attracting electrons from other atoms in the vicinity, or if it has more electrons than protons it will try to share its surplus electrons with any neighbouring atoms which are short of electrons.
