Overall, an atom is neutral charged. The Bohr model was for years accepted as the final authority because it agrees so well with experiment and observation. In this model an atom consists of a nucleus containing protons and neutrons. The neutrons are zero charge so we can forget them in looking for charges. For each proton (1 positive charge) there is always 1 electron (1 negative charge) in orbit around the nucleus. thus an atom has a equal number of electrons and protons and their net charge is zero.
We can do things to temporarily up set this natural balance (we call this electricity) but the atoms will eventually return to their naturally balanced state
Both transition metals and alkali metals are good conductors of heat and electricity, react with water, and are easily oxidized.
<h3>What are alkali metals and transition metals?</h3>
The alkali metals are elements of group 1 which are lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb), caesium (Cs), and francium (Fr). They are also known as the s-block elements because they have their outermost electron in an s-orbital.
The alkali metals are shiny, soft, highly reactive metals and readily lose their outermost electron to create cations with charge +1. They can tarnish rapidly in the air due to oxidation by atmospheric moisture and oxygen.
Transition elements or transition metals are elements that have partially filled d-orbitals. An element having a d-subshell that is partially filled with electrons or can form stable cations with an incompletely filled d orbital.
Any element present in the d-block of the modern periodic table which consists of groups 3 to 12, is considered to be a transition element. For example, the mercury in the +2 oxidation state, corresponds to an electronic configuration of (n-1)d¹⁰. Many paramagnetic compounds are formed by transition metals because they have unpaired electrons in the d orbital.

<h3>
How to get the volume of a body-centered cubic unit cell?</h3>
In a body-centered cubic unit cell, the side length of the cube is given as:
Where R is the radius of the atom.
And the volume of a cube is the side length cubed, then we can see that the volume of our cube will be:
Solving that we get:
This is the approximated volume of the unit cell.
