Best Answer

Atoms are made of different numbers of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons (positive charge) and Neutrons (neutral charge) make up the nucleus of the atom. The incredibly small electrons (negative charge) follow orbitals around the nucleus in what's known as an Electron Cloud.

An example where this is not true, however, is a hydrogen atom. It has only one proton and one electron. Because it only has one proton, it does not naturally have any neutrons as no buffer is needed between protons.
