What atom contains 1 electron and 2 protons?

None, for it to be an atom it has the have the same number of electrons and protons. Something with 1 electron and 2 protons would theoretically be a helium ion but helium does not form ions.

Does Mg 2 contains 15 protons and 10 electrons?

No, the element with an atomic number of 12 is magnesium (Mg), which contains 12 protons and 12 electrons in a neutral atom. If Mg 2 refers to a magnesium ion with a 2+ charge, it would have lost two electrons, resulting in 10 electrons.


What does an atom of 2 protons 2 neutrons and 2 electrons make?

If the atom has a balanced electrical charge, then # of protons = # of electrons, so the atom has 2 protons (Helium). The vast majority of Helium atoms have 2 neutrons.


Why is any atom neutral?

The atom has the same number of electrons as protons. electrons are negatively charged, and protons are positively charged. So for example in a Helium atom, it has 2 protons and 2 electrons, so the sub-particles cancel out, making the atom neutral.
