Answer:
d. There is no charge
Step-by-step explanation:
An atom of this nature with equal number of protons and neutrons will have no charge on them.
- Protons are the positively charged particles in an atom
- Electrons are negatively charged.
- Neutrons carry no charges.
In an atom, when there is an imbalance between the number of protons and electrons, they become charged.
When the number of protons and electrons are the same, then, the atom becomes uncharged.
Charge = Number of protons - Number of electrons
Number of protons = 6
Number of electrons = 6
Charge = 6 - 6 = 0
So, the atom will have no charge on it.
