In a neutral atom, the number of protons is always equal to the number of electrons.
No - in fact it is quite rare
The atomic number reflects the charge number of the nucleus. It is always equal to the number of protons found in the nucleus.
Atomic number is always equal to the number of protons in an atom.
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.
No
The number of protons in the atom's nucleus and the total number of electrons in the electron shells of that atom.
Protons, neutrons, and electrons are subunits present in equal numbers in an atom. The number of protons in an atom is equal to the number of electrons, while the number of neutrons can vary in different isotopes of an element.
#of electrons and # of protons is EQUAL in a neutral atom
The number of protons in an atom is equal to its atomic number.
16 The atomic number of an element is always the same as the number of protons in an atom of the element.
In the atom state (not ionic), yes.
The atomic number is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus and in a neutral atom will also equal the number of electrons.
