That would be a neutron.
Cadmium is the only neutral atom (not electrically charged) to have 48 electrons.
In 1920, Ernest Rutherford created a hypothesis about the existence of neutrons. However, it is believed that the neutron was first discovered in 1932. The person credited with this discovery was Sir James Chadwick.

Only hydrogen has un-isotopic atoms without a neutron. Hydrogen can sometimes though have one or so neutrons in its isotopes. The other elements must have neutrons to keep the protons from repelling each other in the atom's nucleus.
The term atom is greek, and a literal translation is un-cut.
An atom, of any element, has three different particles in its construction. They are protons, Neutrons and electrons. The protons are positively(+) charged, the neutrons have no charge, and the electrons have negative(-) charge. The protons and neutrons are found un the nucleus of the atom, and are collectively named as nucleons. The electrons are found in energy shells surrounding and outside the nucleus. Any one element has its own characteristic number of protons and electrons. Taking carbon as an example. It has six(6) protons and six(6) electrons. As another example, oxygen has eight( 8) protons and eight (8) electrons. et.seq.,
I do not think so. There are several questions in particle physics that remain un-answered.
The identity of an atom is defined by its Atomic Number, the number of Protons in the Nucleus. If the atom is un-ionized, it will also have the same number of electrons. So, just to be excruciatingly specific, every atom of the same element has exactly the same number of protons.

Carbon IS an atom. I presume you mean how many electrons there are. There are 6 electrons, 6 protons and 6 neutrons in every un-bonded Carbon atom.
