Question

An atom can contain protons which have a positive charge (+) and electrons which have a negative charge (−). When an electron and a proton pair up, they become neutral (0) and cancel the charge at. Now determine the net charge:

4 protons and 8 electrons →

Sum

Solution

4 protons and 8 electrons → (+4) + (−8)

= +4 – 8

= −4

⇒ 4 electrons ⊖⊖⊖⊖
