Answer : The correct option is, 8 protons, 8 neutrons, 8 electrons

Explanation :

Neutral atom means the atom contains same number of electrons and protons and there is no charge on atom.

The given neutral atom is, oxygen

The atomic number of oxygen = 8

As we know that the atomic number is equal to the number of electrons and also equal to the number of protons.

Number of electrons = Number of protons = 8

The atomic mass of neutral oxygen atom = 16

Number of neutrons = Atomic mass - Atomic number = 16 - 8 = 8

Number of neutrons = 8

Therefore, the neutral atom of oxygen have 8 protons, 8 neutrons, 8 electrons.
