What two particles in an atom always have the same number?

Protons and electrons in an atom always have the same number, which determines the atom's overall charge. The number of protons is equal to the atomic number of the element, while the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom.


Are the number of protons and electrons in helium atom the same or different?

They are always the same


A neutral atom always contains the same number of what?

protons and electrons


How do you find protons without electrons?

The number of protons is always the same as the atomic number. If you have a periodic table, then you will always know how many protons are in each element.


If an atom has 49 protons how many electrons does it have?

A neutral atom with 49 electrons will have 49 protons. The number of protons and electrons are always the same in a neutral atom. If the number of protons is not matched by the number of electrons, then the atom is charged and is called an ion. Further, if protons outnumber electrons, the atom is positively charged and is a positive ion. For situations where electrons outnumber protons, the opposite is true. The element with 49 protons in it is indium, by the way.


Are protons and electrons always equal?

yes,,,because the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. No, when electons are lost or gained by an atom (number of protons stays the same) the atoms become 'ions,' which are positively or negatively charged respectively.


The nuclei of all atoms of a given element always have the same number of what?

The nuclei of all atoms of a given element always have the same number of protons. This number is unique to each element and is known as the element's atomic number.


Why Is the number of protons and electrons in a normal atom the same?

They are not always the same. It helps the atom be balanced.


What atom has the same number of protons and electrons?

Naturally, all elements have the same number of electrons and protons.


How many protrons and electrons are present in a potassium atom?

A potassium atom typically has 19 protons and 19 electrons. The number of protons defines the element, so potassium always has 19 protons. In a neutral atom, the number of protons and electrons is the same.


How many electrons does a chlorine atom have if it has 17 protons and 18 neutrons?

17 electrons. The number of protons and electrons is always the same.
