Protons are in all atoms, neutral or not. They are what makes different elements different, and they represent what positive charge there is in the atom. Atoms are neutral because there are negatively charged electrons orbiting the nucleus; one electron per proton (for a regular atom), thus balancing out the charge to neutral.
False. The atom that has the same number of protons as it has electrons is a neutral atom.
In any neutral atom, the number of protons = the number of electrons.
False. An atom is neutral if it has an equal number of protons and neutrons
In a neutral atom the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. And by definition the atomic number of an atom is equal to the number of protons in it. So the atomic number of a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons or the number of electrons in the atom.
A neutral atom has the same number of protons and electrons.
An atom is neutral if the numbers of protons and electrons are equal it's neutral.
False. The atom that has the same number of protons as it has electrons is a neutral atom.
Generally an atom contains similar number of electrons and protons. That is why an atom is neutral.
In any neutral atom, the number of protons = the number of electrons.
In an neutral atom, the number of protons and the electrons are the same
Atoms are neutral as long as they contain the same number of protons as electrons. If there are more electrons than protons, the atom has a negative charge. If there are less electrons than protons, the atom has a positive charge.
In a neutral atom the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. The opposite charge between protons and electrons is what allows for a neutral atom.
False. An atom is neutral if it has an equal number of protons and neutrons
A neutral nitrogen atom has 7 protons. This is because nitrogen has an atomic number of 7 and each atom has the same number of protons as its atomic number. Therefore a neutral nitrogen atom would have 7 protons.
The neutral atom has 14 protons.
If a neutral atom of sodium has 11 protons, it will have 11 electrons also.
The electrons are equal to the amount of protons in that neutral atom.
