Question

A natural charge by an atom is caused by which of the following conditions?

A.) presence of neutrons in the nucleus
B.) balance in the number of protons and neutrons
C.) balance in the number of electrons and protons
D.) the balance of electrons in each electron shell

Answer 1

C

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming that you meant to type neutral charge.

Since electrons are negative and protons are positive, having a balanced number of both of these would cause an atom to have a neutral charge.
