Both are in the nucleus:

Proton-- positive

Neutron-- neutral

Note: Even though it appears to have no charge, neutrons have a charge. The negative and positive charges just cancel each other out.

Which pair below describes isotopes of the same element Aan atom with 6 protons and 8 neutrons - an atom with 8 protons an 6 neutrons Ban atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons - an atom with 6 p?

The pair below that describes isotopes of the same element is B, an atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons-an atom with 6 protons. It is not A, an atom with 6 protons and 8 neutrons- an atom with 8 protons and 6 neutrons. Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons and electrons, which is the atomic number of the element.

Which trem describes the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in an atom?

"Atomic mass" is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of the atom. All atoms of an element have the same number of protons. For example, all iron atoms have 26 protons. But while most (90%) have 30 neutrons, there are isotopes of iron that have anywhere from 26 to 36 neutrons. So the published "atomic mass" is the weighted average of the combined number of protons and neutrons. That's why the atomic number is always a whole number, but the atomic mass is a decimal.
