An atom is composed of these sub particles: protons, nuetron, and electrons. Inside the nucleus there are protons (positively charges) and nuetrons(nuetrally charges). Ouside of the atom's nucleaus are electrons (negatively charged). An atom is said to be nuetrally charged if there are the same number of protons and electrons.
