If an atom contains one electron and one proton,will it carry and charge or not?

An atom contains protons, neutrons and ______

An atom contains the same number of protons and electrons.

If an atom has one proton and one electron state the charge on the atom. Justify your answer.

An atom consists of charged particles called electrons and protons. Each proton has a charge of +1 and each electron has a charge of –1. Remember number of electrons is equal to number of protons, while answering these questions: What is the charge on an atom?

The atomic number of sodium is 11. How many protons are there in the nucleus of sodium atom ? How manu electrons does an atom of sodium contain ? How many electrons and protons does an ion of sodium which has a charge of +1 contain ?

Science Application: An atom consists of charged particles called electrons and protons. Each proton has a charge of +1 and each electron has a charge of –1. Remember number of electrons is equal to number of protons, while answering these questions: What will be the charge on an atom if it loses an electron?
