Answer:

Particle A is negatively charged.

Particle B is neutral.

Particle C is positively charged.

Step-by-step explanation:

Particle A is negatively charged because the number of electrons is more than number of protons so the particle gain negative charge. Particle A is neutral due to same number of proton and electron which cancels the effect of one another and become neutral whereas the Particle B is positively charged due presence of more number of protons as compared to number of electrons so the particle gain positive charge.
