Not all atoms have an equal number of protons and neutrons. They can, but they don't have to. Helium, for example, has two of each, but carbon (always with 6 protons) can have 6, 7, or even 8 neutrons. The more neutrons, the more likely it is to be radioactive. The number of protons and neutrons gives the atomic weight of an atom. All of the various amounts of neutrons that an element can have are called isotopes of that element.
Atoms contain equal numbers of protons and electrons until they are ionized into a charged species or "ion."
It has an equal number of protons and electrons.
No. Neutral atoms of each element, including hydrogen, have a unique number of electrons, which is equal to the number of protons in their nuclei. The number of protons is the element's atomic number on the periodic table.
protons and electrons are identical in number in an atom
The atomic number is equal to the number of protons and electrons, for a neutral atom.
protons and electrons protons and electrons
Atoms contain equal numbers of protons and electrons until they are ionized into a charged species or "ion."
Atoms have positive protons in the nucleus with an equal number of negative electrons around the outside the nucleus. No there is no charge on an atom with equal numbers of protons and electrons.
protons and electrons will always be = number
It has an equal number of protons and electrons.
Yes :-)
No. Neutral atoms of each element, including hydrogen, have a unique number of electrons, which is equal to the number of protons in their nuclei. The number of protons is the element's atomic number on the periodic table.
protons and electrons are identical in number in an atom
A neutral atom will have the same number of protons and electrons.
Atoms have 1 to 118 electrons. For a neutral atom the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons (atomic number).
The atomic number is equal to the number of protons and electrons, for a neutral atom.
Protons and Electrons. Furthermore this is true of ALL atoms not "most".
