Electrically neutral elements have equal numbers of electrons and protons. A stable element has equal numbers of protons and neutrons. Thus, the answer to the question ''Do Eletrically neutral element have equal numbers of electrons and neutrons?'' depends on the stability of the element i.e. if stable then yes and if unstable than might not.

Neutral atoms of the same element can differ in their number of what?

Neutrons. If the differ in electrons they are not neutral and if they differ in protons then they are no longer the same element as the number of protons determines the name of the element.


What is the smallest eletrically neutral particle of an element?

The smallest electrically neutral particle of an element is the neutron. Neutrons are subatomic particles found in the nucleus of an atom along with protons. They have no electric charge, unlike protons that are positively charged.


A neutral atom has 117 neutrons and 78 electrons What is the name of the element?

platinum


What element has 2 electrons (neutral atom )?

Helium has 2 protons, 2 neutrons, and 2 electrons.


What element whose neutral atoms have ten neutrons?

The element with neutral atoms containing ten neutrons is neon. Neon has an atomic number of 10, so it always has 10 protons and 10 electrons.


What is the number of neutrons and electrons in the element of silver?

Silver-107 (51.35%) - 60 neutronsSilver-109 (48.65%) - 62 neutronsThe number of electrons is 47 in a neutral atom.


If an element has 12 protons and 17 neutrons how many electrons must it have?

The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons, so in this case, the element must have 12 electrons.


What are the charging of protons electrons and neutrons?

Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons are neutral and have no charge.


What do all atoms of an element have?

They all have protons and electrons. And all but hydrogen have neutrons as well. The number of protons is an element's atomic number. Assuming the atom is neutral, this will also be the number of electrons. The number of neutrons can vary among isotopes of the same element.


What property's do protons and electrons have that neutrons don't?

Protons and electrons are charged particles and neutrons have no charge because they are neutral.


How do the numbers of protons neutrons and electrons for an element compare?

In the neutral state, all atoms of the same element contain equal numbers of protons and electrons. However, most elements have atoms with different numbers of neutrons. These are called isotopes.


How many protons neutrons and electrons are in elements?

The number of protons in an element is its atomic number, which determines its identity. Neutrons can vary for different isotopes of the same element. Electrons equal the number of protons in a neutral atom.
