Protons and electrons are charged particles and neutrons have no charge because they are neutral.
Protons and electrons have mass and charge.
No. An 'atom' can not have more electrons than protons because, by definition, an 'atom' is electrically neutral. If an 'atom' loses or gains an electron, it becomes an 'ion' and is electrically charged. An 'ion' with more electrons than protons will be NEGATIVELY charged because electrons carry negative charge.
Atoms that are neutral must have equal numbers of protons and electrons. This is because protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge. Thus, for the charge to be neutral, the numbers of these particles must be equal.
Protons and electrons both have a positive or negative charge, but neutrons have no charge.
it has a neutral charge because it contains an equal number of protons and electrons
Protons and electrons are charged particles and neutrons have no charge because they are neutral.
because the electrons and protons are equal.
most metals are good heat conductors, because their electrons are free to move around the protons in like a 'sea of electrons' and that enables them to be good charge carriers. (:
That is called a neutral atom, because it has no electric charge. If the atom has an electric charge (i.e., it has more protons than electrons, or more electrons than protons), it is called an ion.That is called a neutral atom, because it has no electric charge.

Protons are always postive, neutrons are always neutral and electrons are always negative. Carbon has no charge because it has as many protons as it has electrons.
Remember.. I f there are more electrons than protons in an ion the charge will be negative. Here there is a -4 charge because the electrons are higher than the protons, if it were the opposite the charge would be +4.
They have an equal numbers of electrons and protons...MoMMy =)
An atom has no electrical charge because the negative charge of the electrons counteract the positive charge of the protons and the neutrons in the nucleus have a neutral charge. For example, Carbon has 6 electrons(-6 charge) and has 6 protons(+6 charge). Giving it an atomic weight of 12 and a charge of 0. The 6 neutrons do not change this charge, they keep it the same because they are neutral. (:
The electrons posses negative (-) charge and the protons positive (+). - and + equals 0 and 0 means neutral.So, if the electrons are more than the protons the charge would be negative because the electrons are negatively charged.If the protons are more than the charge would be positive because the protons are positively charged.
Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons are neutral and have no charge.
Protons and electrons have mass and charge.
