In the atom state (not ionic), yes.
Protons, because electrons are equal to the atomic number and protons are equal to the number of electrons.
Yes, the atomic number is equal to the number of protons. The number of protons is also equal to the number of electrons
This is not a general valid rule; ions have a different number of electrons.
Electrons or Protons. As they are effectively equal in no in a neutral atom.
Nobelium has 102 protons and 102 electrons, as the number of protons is equal to the atomic number, and in a neutral atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons.
No - in fact it is quite rare
In a neutral atom, the number of protons is always equal to the number of electrons.
protons and electrons will always be = number
No, the number of valence electrons is not always equal to the number of protons. The number of valence electrons is determined by the group number of an element on the periodic table, while the number of protons is the atomic number of the element.
No
Protons and electrons in an atom always have the same number, which determines the atom's overall charge. The number of protons is equal to the atomic number of the element, while the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom.
yes,,,because the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. No, when electons are lost or gained by an atom (number of protons stays the same) the atoms become 'ions,' which are positively or negatively charged respectively.
The atomic number reflects the charge number of the nucleus. It is always equal to the number of protons found in the nucleus.
The number of protons in the atom's nucleus and the total number of electrons in the electron shells of that atom.
#of electrons and # of protons is EQUAL in a neutral atom
Protons, neutrons, and electrons are subunits present in equal numbers in an atom. The number of protons in an atom is equal to the number of electrons, while the number of neutrons can vary in different isotopes of an element.
Protons, because electrons are equal to the atomic number and protons are equal to the number of electrons.
