The answar is: magnetic quantum number
The number of electrons and protons in a neutral atoms must always what?
#of electrons and # of protons is EQUAL in a neutral atom
Which to particles in an atom are equal in number?
The protons and electrons are equal in number in a neutral atom
The number of these is equal to the number of electrons in an atom?
A neutral atom has equal numbers of elecrons and protons.
In an atom the proton always equals the number?
Yes, the amount of protons within the atom is always equal to its atomic number. If a proton is removed, you get a different element.
What does the atomic number always equal inside an atom?

In an atom the number of protons is always equal to the number of what?
No - in fact it is quite rare
What is the atomic number always equal to?

Does the number of protons always equal the number of electrons in a atom?
No
What number is always equal to what so that an atom has no electrical charge in its normal state?
Electrons are equal to atomic number to have no net charge on an atom
What two particles in an atom always have the same number?
In a neutral atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons.
An equal number of protons and neutrons typically results in an atom that is?
Often, but not always, atoms with an equal number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus are stable and not radioactive.
Is the number of electrons in an atom always equal to the number of neutrons?
No - in fact it is quite rare
Does the number of protons always equal the number of electrons?
In the atom state (not ionic), yes.
