Question

What is meant by the statement "Atoms are electrically neutral"?

Answer 1

HEY MATE HERE IS YOUR ANS WER

By definition, an atom is electrically neutral (i.e. has the same number of protons as it does electrons, plus some number of neutrons depending on the isotope). If a species were charged, it is referred to as an ion (cation for positively charged and anion for negatively charged species)

I HOPE YOU HAVE UNDERSTOOD.

In an electron,there are protons (positively charged)and electrons(negatively charged). So they cancel each others charges and neutron is already neutral.

This is what you mean by* Atoms are electrically neutral*
