What do electrons have that protons always have in equal magnitude?

Electrons have negative charge and protons have positive charge. These charges always have equal magnitude but opposite signs in an atom, maintaining electrical neutrality.


What particles have negative electric charges equal to the positive charges of the protons?

The electrons; their negativity cancels out the protons' positivity so the atom is electrically neutral.


What parts of an atom are equal to each other?

It depends on what you mean by what parts are equal. Protons and electrons both have the same magnitude of charge with opposite signs and electrons are much less massive than protons. Protons and neutrons are approximately equal in mass but protons have a charge of +e Coulombs while neutrons have a charge of 0. Atoms can often exist with unequal numbers of protons and electrons. Such atoms are called ions and have a negative charge if they have more electrons than protons and positive charge if they have more protons than electrons.


Protons have magnitude of charge as neutron but opposite in sign?

Protons have charge while neutrons do not. Hence, "neu-" like neutral? Electrons carry a negative charge while protons carry a positive charge.


What must be equal in a neutral atom?

Protons and electrons must be equal in a neutral atom because protons and electrons have equal but opposite charges.


Is the number of protons no of electrons?

Yes , the no. of electrons is equal to the no. of protons


If an atom contains 15 electrons it will also have 15?

Protons, because electrons are equal to the atomic number and protons are equal to the number of electrons.


When atoms are at rest what do they have an equal number of?

protons and electrons protons and electrons


How do protons and electrons differ in their electronic charge?

Protons and electrons have equal and opposite charge of the Elementary charge e, with protons being e+ and electrons e-


How many electrons versus protons in an atom?

The number of electrons should = the number of protons.


Do protons and electrons have the same number?

Yes, the atomic number is equal to the number of protons. The number of protons is also equal to the number of electrons


Nobelium has an atomic number of 102 how many protons and electrons does it have?

Nobelium has 102 protons and 102 electrons, as the number of protons is equal to the atomic number, and in a neutral atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons.
