Answer:

D- 8 protons, 8 neutrons, 8 electrons

Explanation:

A neutral atom is one in which the number of negative charges balances the number of positive charges.

<em>Positive charge component of atom is the proton</em>

<em>Negative charge component of an atom is the electron.</em>

Hence, for a neutral atom, number of proton = number of electron

Also, number of proton in an element = atomic number of the element

<em>Oxygen has atomic number of 8. Hence the number of proton is also equal to 8. In addition, since proton number = electron number for a neutral atom, the number of electron is also equal to 8.</em>

The correct answer is D.
