Well seeing as how neutral atom
is meaning neither a positive or a negative charge
and a proton is positively charged
an electron is negatively charged
If you had 2 electrons the balance would kinda be disrupted wouldn't it?
Because then your nuetral atom
would in fact be negative.
What else can I help you with?
How many number of protons and electrons for this atom or ion?
The atomic number tells you the number of protons. For instance oxygen has an atomic number of 8, and hence it has 8 protons. Electrons are slightly more complicated. In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is always the same as the number of protons. However, if the atom is charged (i.e. it is an ion), it may have more electrons than protons (negatively charged) or less electrons than protons (positively charged).
Property you cant determine about an atom from the atomic chart is?
Group numbers tell us that how many electrons an atom contain in its outer shell. Eg. Na11 have 1 electron in its outer shell it means Na belongs to group 1. and so on.
How do you write a Lewis dot structure for morpholine?
O(CH2)4NH you have to draw the O at the top of the ring with its two lone pairs, then on both sides is a C with two branching Hs and then continued around the hexagone like structure until you get to the bottom where you put an N with two lone pairs and a H branching off of it. Cant really draw it on here, but hope that helps!
Why cant a hydronium ion accept a proton?
Because it is already a hydrated proton and carries a positive charge which repels another proton making it energetically unfavorable.
How do yo find the neutrons of an atom?
Refer to the periodic table of elements the number above the letter (atomic #) refers to the number of protons in the nucleus NOTE: in a neutral atom, we know that #protons = #electrons the number below the letter(atomic mass) refers to the number of protons + neutrons therefore if we take ATOMIC MASS - ATOMIC # = # NEUTRONS
Why cant a neutral atom have one proton one neutron and one electron?
It can. This is an isotope of hydrogen called deuterium. However, deuterium accounts of less than 0.04% of all hydrogen by mass.
How did golstein find the proton?
ask your teacher because i cant LOL where would you find a proton? atom

What are 3 subatomic particles that make up an atom and their location?
- Electron - surrounding the nucleus in orbitals/shells with a negative charge and are in a electron cloud - Proton - make up the nucleus with the positive charge - Neutron - make up the nucleus with no charge what so ever
What happens when you add or remove protons in an atom?
Adding or removing protons in an atom changes the element itself, as the number of protons determines the atomic number. Adding a proton creates a new element, while removing a proton changes the atom into a different element. This process also affects the overall charge of the atom, as the number of protons affects the balance of positive charges in the nucleus.
How does the Pauli exclusion principle help us determine where an electron is within the atom?
It really says that no two electrons can have the same 4 quantum numbers. Effectively that means that one orbital can only hold 2 electrons at most. the first answer is absolutely correct but if used in the context dealing with a neutron star, this is a law of physics that prevents a neutron star from further collapse it simply states that no 2 neutrons can occupy the same quantum state simultaneously
What happens to the charges of an atom if the one proton and electron are removed?
Removal would cause the atom to change from an atom would change it into an atom of the element with an atomic number one less. Now what happens next? It depends on whether the isotope of the element you have just made is stable. If not it will undergo radioactive decay. (Note hydrogen would of course disappear if you removed 1 proton and 1 electron)
How can you tell from the periodic table how many outer shell electrons an atom will have?
you cant its inposible just pay attention in class and u will find out.
The diameter of an atom is?
in the bottom Atomic nucleus is at the center of the atom.
Why electron have negative charge?
Understanding that this question is the same as asking "why do we have one moon?" or "why does hydrogen have one proton" might help you reconsider what it is you are trying to ask. It is what it is. Asking "why" is a philosophical question to which no one would know the answer... Here i just wana say that as we know that a proton and a neurtron can be further subdivided into quarks which are the building blocks of hadrons(i.e Proton and neutron etc), there are six quarks ,however a proton is made of only 3 quarks , two up quarks and one down quark.. value for up quark is 2/3 for down quark value is -1/3 so mathematically, 2/3*2 = 4/3 4/3-1/3=3/3= 1 a positive plus charge on proton FOR neutron same process as above.. but for an electron we cant calculate it in the way like for proton and neutron. so we have to just accept it in the way as it is..just like some planets of our universe are big and some are small..so we cant say that why these are... however Quantam mechanics is still on working for this...REGARDS
What does the atom of nitrogen look like?
you cant see an atom!
