To answer the second part of your question, an element with varying neutrons is an isotope, and to determine which isotope it is we have the chemical symbol plus the mass number (ie C-14).
Going back to the first part, this question is a bit flawed. Protons are relative to the element itself. The atomic number is equal to the number of protons. So nitrogen will always have 7 protons. Neutrons have no charge (neutron=neutral), so a varying amount of neutrons will not affect the charge. To alter your charge you need to look into the amounts of electrons as relative to the amounts of protons, but that's a different matter.

Why is alpha is a positive charged particle?
An alpha particle is a helium-4 nucleus - in other words, two protons + 2 neutrons. The protons have a positive charge, the neutrons are neutral.
What is the charge of a alpha particle?
+2
What is the electrical charge of an alpha particle?
The electric charge of an alpha particle is positive. An alpha particle is a helium nucleus (which being a nucleus has a positive charge)
An atom that carries an electric charge is called a neutron?
No. That would be called an ion.
What are the subatomic particles that form the basic structure of atoms called?
The three subatomic particles are protons, neutrons, and electrons. The protons and neutrons are located in the atomic nucleus. The electrons are located in the electron cloud surrounding the nucleus.
What is an atom a particle of?
An atom is made up of subatomic particles called protons, neutrons and electrons. Protons have a positive charge, Neutrons are neutral, and electrons have a negative charge. :-)
What is the particle that has no charge?
Neutrons. Protons have negative charge, electrons have positive charge, NEUTRONS have no chargep-e+n°
What is a no charge particle called?
There are three basic types of atomic particles. Electrons, which have a negative charge, protons with a positive charge and neutrons, which have no charge.
What is a charge particle called?
There are three basic types of atomic particles. Electrons, which have a negative charge, protons with a positive charge and neutrons, which have no charge.
Is an alpha charge a - or?
The charge of an alpha particle is +2 as there are 2 protons and 2 neutrons
What charge does the subatomic particle have?
Protons are positive, neutrons have no charge and are neutral, electrons are negative.
What particle is found in the nucleus?
Atoms are conformed of three kinds of particles: neutrons, protons and electrons. The nucleus is conformed by protons and neutrons. Protons have a positive charge and neutrons have no charge.
What is negatively charged atomic particle?
In an atom, electrons have a negative charge. The other two atomic particles that are in atoms are neutrons and protons. Neutrons have a neutral charge and protons have a positive charge.
What element has 24 protons and charge of 3?
Any particle with 24 protons, despite the number of neutrons or the charge, is chromium.
What is negatively charged particle?
Electrons have a negative charge. Protons have a positive charge. Neutrons have no charge.
Why is alpha is a positive charged particle?
An alpha particle is a helium-4 nucleus - in other words, two protons + 2 neutrons. The protons have a positive charge, the neutrons are neutral.
Is it true that the nucleus is an atomic particle that has no atomic change?
the nucleus is made of protons and neutrons together. the protons have a positive charge and the neutrons have no charge [electrons circle the nucleus and have a negative charge]
