The atom must have 8 electrons to make it have a neutral charge
It depends entirely on what type of atom it is. (Neutral atom is redundant. A "non-neutral" atom is referred to as an ion) If it is an atom of carbon, for example, there are 6 electrons. Silicon, on the other hand, has 14 electrons.
It will have 30 protons and 30 electrons if the atom is neutral.
A neutral atom of Carbon has 6 protons and 6 electrons
A neutral carbon atom has 6 protons and 6 electrons.
If the atom is neutral, then it will have 15 electrons to balance the 15 protons.
The number of electrons should = the number of protons.
If a neutral atom of sodium has 11 protons, it will have 11 electrons also.
protons

24 protons and 24 electrons
A neutral atom of Carbon has 6 protons and 6 electrons
A "atom" which by definition is electrically neutral, has the same number of electrons as it has protons.
A neutral carbon atom has 6 protons and 6 electrons.
If the atom is neutral, then it will have 15 electrons to balance the 15 protons.
A neutral atom of beryllium has 4 electrons. In a neutral atom, the numbers of electrons and protons are equal. An element's atomic number is the number of protons.
5 electrons because no. of protons= no. of electrons
