No, because an atom consists of two main parts and three subatomic particles - protons, neutrons, electrons. Each one is smaller than an atom, therefore they are subatomic particles. An atom only requires protons and electrons to be an atom - Hydrogen has 1 proton and 1 electron. Neutrons DO NOT affect the overall charge of the atom, and only increase the atomic mass.
