Answer:
Every atom has no overall charge (neutral). This is because they contain equal numbers of positive protons and negative electrons. These opposite charges cancel each other out making the atom neutral.

Answer:
Because electrons and protons in an atom have charges and each atom contains an equal amount of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged) particles, an atom is electrically neutral.
Explanation:
Because an atom's total charge is zero, it is electrically neutral. Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, while neutrons have no charge. Because the amount of protons and electrons in an atom is equal, the total charge of the atom is zero.
