Question

An atom's nucleus contains three protons and three neutrons. What is the overall charge of the nucleus? Ο Α. Ο OB. +3 C. -3 D. +6​

Answer 1

• Basically nuetrons are chargeless subatomic particles.
• There are 3 protons which are positively charged.
• So, +3 + 0 = +3

Answer:

The overall charge of the nucleus is +3.

Answer 2

B

Step-by-step explanation:

An atom's nucleus charge is the net charge given on the atom. Neutrons have 0 charge, so having any amount of them would do nothing. However, electrons make the charge negative but are not listed here. We have three protons, which means it makes the charge positive three times.
