Why do atoms have a neutral charge or no charge when the have positive protons and negative electrons?

A neutral atom has the same number of protons and electrons. The magnitude of the charges that these particles carry is the same. So they cancel each other.

Why is a complete atom electrically neutral?
negative electrons and positive protons are equal.
Do neutrons have a electric charge?
No, protons are positive, electrons are negative, and neutrons are neutral.
How do atoms remain neutral?
Atoms are neutral as long as they contain the same number of protons as electrons. If there are more electrons than protons, the atom has a negative charge. If there are less electrons than protons, the atom has a positive charge.
