Question

Does a atom usually have more minus or plus charges

Answer 1

Depends on the element

It now has more positive protons than electrons so it has an overall positive charge. Therefore it is a positive ion. A fluorine atom will tend to gain, rather than lose, an electron. By gaining a negative electron, it has an overall negative charge.

Answer 2

A normal atom has a neutral charge with equal numbers of positive and negative particles
