In most cases, yes beryllium has 4 protons and 4 electron, but this is only beryllium in neutral form. There is also an ion of beryllium though which has 4 protons and 2 electrons.

Do atoms lose protons but seldom lose or gain electrons?

No. Atoms can gain and lose electrons but seldom gain or lose protons.


What do most atoms have equal parts of?

Protons and Electrons. Furthermore this is true of ALL atoms not "most".


Is most atoms have more electrons than proton false or true?

False, all atoms have the same no of electrons and protons. Negative ions have more electrons. Positive ions have fewer electrons.


What is true about all anions?

Atoms are not anions. An atom is an electrically neutral particle with equal numbers of protons and electrons. An atom becomes an anion by gaining more electrons, so becoming negatively charged.


Is it true that the number of electrons in an element is the same for all neutral atom of that element?

Yes, this is true for electrons (and protons) of all neutral atoms of an element.


Is it true that atoms can not be subdivided?

No. Each atom (except for Hydrogen) is made up of neutrons, protons, and electrons. Each of these components can be further subdivided into quarks, etc.


Which of these statements is false all neutrons are alike all electrons are alike all protons are alike all atoms are alike?

True statements: All neutrons are alike, all electrons are alike, all protons are alike (All atoms of a given isotope is only alike). False statement: All atoms are alike All atoms are not alike as they may vary in the number of protons / electrons / neutrons.


What is true of all atoms that are anions A more electrons than protons B more protons than electrons C fewer protons than neutral atom of same element D more neutrons than protons E net charge is 1-?

Answer A is correct: there are more electrons than protons. However, if a particle is an anion, it is not an atom. Atoms are electrically neutral.


Atoms always have the same number of electrons as they have protons?

This is true. That is why a atom is neutral. An atom becomes an Ion when the charges are + or -


What is true about the composition of all of the elements in the table?

All atoms of chemical elements contain protons, neutrons and electrons.


Do uncombined atoms have the same number of neutrons as protons?

You are prolly asking this for an online true/false test or something, but the answer is no, not necessarily. They do always have the same number of electrons and protons however.
