Answer:

True,

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of protons in the nucleus of the atom is equal to the atomic number. The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons. The mass number of the atom is equal to the sum of the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
