It is only possible to state that that an atom with a charge of -2 has two electrons more than it has protons in its nucleus. It is impossible to determine how many protons it has unless you state the specific element in question, and the number of neutrons will depend upon the particular isotope of that element.
An atom has no electrical charge because the negative charge of the electrons counteract the positive charge of the protons and the neutrons in the nucleus have a neutral charge. For example, Carbon has 6 electrons(-6 charge) and has 6 protons(+6 charge). Giving it an atomic weight of 12 and a charge of 0. The 6 neutrons do not change this charge, they keep it the same because they are neutral. (:
The three main subatomic particles that form an atom are protons, neutrons, and electrons. The center of the atom is called the nucleus.The protons have a positive charge, the neutrons have no charge, and the electrons have a negative charge.
No, the number of electrons in an atom does not need to equal the number of neutrons. The number of electrons in an atom is typically equal to the number of protons in order to maintain electrical neutrality, while the number of neutrons may vary, affecting the atom's stability and isotopic properties.
If the ion has a +1 charge and has 107 electrons, that means that it originally had 108 electrons, and therefore has 108 protons. The mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons, 108 + 159, and therefore is equal to 267.
Protons and Electrons= 15 Neutrons=16 *The isotope 31P is the only naturally occurring form of phosphorus. Forms with 17 or 18 neutrons have been synthesized, and are unstable radioisotopes.
Protons and electrons have an electrical charge.
Protons and electrons are charged particles and neutrons have no charge because they are neutral.
The Electrons and the Protons.
Protons have an electrical charge of +1. Neutrons have an electrical charge of 0. Electrons have an electrical charge of -1.
Electrons: Negative Protons: Positive Neutrons: Neutral
Electrons have a negative charge, protons have a positive charge, and neutrons have no charge (they are neutral).
Neutrons have no charge, protons have a positive charge and electrons have a negative charge.
Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons are neutral and have no charge.
Protons have the greatest charge wich is positive.Electrons have the worst charge wich is negative.Nuetrons have a positive and a negative charge wich is called neutral. these are the respictive charges of an atom
Protons and electrons both have a positive or negative charge, but neutrons have no charge.
An atom is composed of three main particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons have a positive electrical charge, neutrons have no electrical charge (neutral), and electrons have a negative electrical charge.
Atoms are composed of three main types of particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons have a positive electrical charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons have no charge. The positive charge of the protons is balanced by the negative charge of the electrons, creating a neutral atom overall.
