Answer:
False.
Explanation:
This is because in a neutral atom, the number of electrons is equal to atomic number, but in case there is a gain or loss of electrons, the no of protons and no of electrons differ and since, the number of protons is equal to atomic number for which the statement is false. It is only true in case of a neutral atom.
