Best Answer

the nucleus consists of protons and neutrons. Those are made up of quarks but for a chemistry class you'll probably only need to know the neutrons and protons. The overall charge of the nucleus is how many protons are in the nucleus. To know this all you need is the atomic number of the element. So for hydrogen it is 1 and for oxygen it is 8. The charge of the whole atom is different though. It is the protons- the electrons.
