From rocks such as: Limestone and sometimes coal or if you rub a rough surface against another and charge it into whatever you want using a conducting electricity wire.

Knowing which element it is and its formal charge, subtract the charge from its atomic number.
You can't. To find the mass number, you need to know how many neutrons are in the nucleus (mass number = # of protons + # of neutrons). The atomic number is equal to the number of protons, and the charge tells you the number of electrons indirectly (net charge of atom = # of protons – # of electrons). Neither of these things tells you anything about the number of neutrons, which is what you need.See the Related Questions to the left for more information.
Assuming the context of this question is atomic physics, the answer is "false" for two reasons: 1) the atomic nucleus is positively charged. 2) the atomic nucleus a tightly bound composite of many particles.
The atomic radius depends on the the number of electron shells, total negative charge, positive charge of the nucleus, atomic mass.
The particle that adds mass but no charge to the atomic nucleus is the neutron. Neutrons are one of the two primary components of atomic nuclei, along with protons. While protons carry a positive charge, neutrons are neutral, contributing to the overall mass of the nucleus without affecting its charge. This balance of protons and neutrons is crucial for the stability of atomic nuclei.

What number of protons there are that's the atomic number. B/c the atomic number is the same as the number of protons. Electrons are usually of the same quantity, however in ions (an atom with a charge) they vary. this is what gives an atom a positive or negative charge.
The neutron is the particle in the atomic nucleus that carries no charge.
To find the total charge of an atomic nucleus you first have to know how many protons are in the nucleus. The only way to find this is from a Periodic Table. On the table find the symbol for your atom then look for the Atomic Number(number of protons). This is usually a boldface number. For example H has atomic number 1; He has atomic number 2, C has atomic number 6 etc. Once you find the number of protons you multiply that times the charge on each proton to get the final answer. The charge on a proton is 1.6 x 10^-19 coulombs. A second, indirect way to get the answer is if you know how many electrons would normally surround the nucleus. Since this number is the same as the number of protons you can then proceed as above.
(Atomic number) - (Number of electrons present) = (overall electrical charge of atom)
To find the nuclear charge of chlorine with 22 neutrons, you need to know the atomic number of chlorine, which is 17. The nuclear charge is equal to the atomic number plus the number of neutrons, so in this case, it would be 17 (atomic number) + 22 (neutrons) = 39.
A neutron is neutral, meaning no charge.
Neutrons carry no charge.
This atomic particle is the neutron.
in an atom of neutral charge, the number of electrons will be the same as the number of protons, or the atomic number.
