My teacher says protons and electrons are always equal to each other. So does that mean every element has a charge of 0? No, that can’t be.. but I’m still confused. Please help!

Sagot :

Answer: Your teacher is correct, although yes not every element has a charge of 0.

Explanation:

Atoms are electrically neutral because they contain equal quantities of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons. Electrons and protons have equal but opposite charges, so the result is no net charge.
