This particle is the proton with a positive charge.
The atomic number always equals to the number of protons. which in this case, is 20
There are similar number of electrons and protons. it has 15 electrons and protons.
In an atom, 10 protons and 10 electrons. (# of protons = atomic number) =)
valence electrons is the same as the number as the last digit in the group :)
Number protons equal to atomic number. So the element is Helium
An atom is neutral when the number of protons in the nucleus equals the number of electrons surrounding the nucleus. This means that the atom has no overall charge, as the positive charge of the protons is balanced by the negative charge of the electrons. The mass number, which is the sum of protons and neutrons, does not necessarily impact the neutrality of the atom.
The number of electrons should equal the number of protons, otherwise you have an ion.
There are 50 electrons. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons equals the number of protons.
YES!!!!
The number of protons equals the number of electrons in an uncharged atom.
In a neutral atom, the number of electrons equals the number of protons. The number of protons is the atomic number of the element on the periodic table.
2 * Z
The atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons, which also equals the number of electrons in a neutral atom.
An atom of ruthenium contains 44 protons and 44 electrons. This is because the number of protons in an atom determines its identity, and for a neutral atom, the number of protons equals the number of electrons.
In a neutral atom the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. The opposite charge between protons and electrons is what allows for a neutral atom.
Unless it is an ion, the number of electrons will equal the number of protons.
Yes. If the number is unequal, it is an ion.Yes that is correct. The atomic number is equal to the number of electrons which equals the number of protons
