Why non charged atoms must have the same number of atom electrons and protons but the number of neutrins can be different?
Non-charged atoms, or neutral atoms, have an equal number of protons and electrons to ensure that the positive charge of the protons balances out the negative charge of the electrons, resulting in no overall charge. Neutrons, on the other hand, do not carry any charge; their number can vary in atoms of the same element, leading to different isotopes. This variability in neutrons allows for differences in Atomic Mass without affecting the atom's electrical neutrality.
What else can I help you with?
Does a chloride ion have equal protons and electrons?
No. By definition an ion is electrically charged and so must have a different number of protons and electrons. A chloride ion has 17 protons and 18 electrons.
Where are protons and neutrins located?
Protons and Neutrons compose the nucleus of the atom. They are surrounded by a cloud of electrons. If our universe was an atom, the sun would be the nucleus (with protons and neutrons) and the orbiting planets would be the electrons.
What charge does protons and electrons have?
protons are positively (+) charged and electronsare negatively (-e) charged
Is a ion is a charged particle because it now had either more or fewer electrons than protons?
Yes. If it has fewer electrons that protons, it will be a positively charged ion, and if it has more electrons than protons, it will be a negatively charged ion.
What is a property of protons and electrons that determines the electromagnetic interaction between them?
The charges on them. Protons are positively charged whereas electrons are negatively charged
How many electrons are in 36 protons?
Protons do not contain electrons. Protons are positively charged, electrons negatively charged.
Do protons have the same charge as electrons?
yes. protons are positively charged. electrons are negatively charged

Why electrons are not present in protons?
maybe because they are 2 DIFFERENT particles present in an atom... electrons are -ve while protons are +ve ly charged
What determines an element's charge?
The number of protons and electrons in the atom. If the number of protons = number of electrons, it is electrically neutral. If number of protons > number of electrons, it is positively charged. If number of protons < number of electrons, it is negatively charged.
If the number of electrons and protons are not the same what do you call this?
When the number of electrons and protons are not the same in an atom, it becomes an ion. An atom becomes positively charged if it loses electrons (more protons than electrons), and negatively charged if it gains electrons (more electrons than protons).
What is the difference between electrons and protons?
Electrons are negatively charged particles found in the electron cloud of an atom, while protons are positively charged particles located in the nucleus. Protons are about 1,836 times more massive than electrons.
What charge does protons and electrons have?
protons are positively (+) charged and electronsare negatively (-e) charged
Is a ion is a charged particle because it now had either more or fewer electrons than protons?
Yes. If it has fewer electrons that protons, it will be a positively charged ion, and if it has more electrons than protons, it will be a negatively charged ion.
What are atoms called that hsve the same number of protons but different numbers of electrons?
Ions. They are charged molecules or charged atoms.
What is a property of protons and electrons that determines the electromagnetic interaction between them?
The charges on them. Protons are positively charged whereas electrons are negatively charged
