The electrical charge of an atom having 15 proton, 14 neutrons and 16 electrons is -1. The correct option is D.
What is an atom?
An atom is the smallest unit of any matter which comprises of central nucleus and electrons revolving around the nucleus in definite energy shells. The atom is made up of protons, neutrons and electrons.
The electrical charge of an atom can be calculated as,
Charge of an atom = number of protons - number of electrons
Charge = 15 - 16 = -1.
The neutrons are neutral and do not contribute to the charge, the protons are positively charged and electrons are negatively charged in an atom.
Therefore, the charge of an atom with 15 protons, 14 neutrons and 16 electrons is -1. The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:
A covalent bond is formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.
An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element. This bond is formed between a metal and an non-metal.
Chlorine and potassium atoms form ionic bonds: Ionic bond is formed when there is complete transfer of electron from a highly electropositive metal to a highly electronegative non metal. Electronegativity difference = electronegativity of chlorine - electronegativity of potassium = 3-0.8 = 2.2
Carbon atoms form non-polar covalent bonds with nitrogen atoms : Non-polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is no difference of electronegativities between the atoms. Electronegativity difference = electronegativity of nitrogen - electronegativity of carbon= 3.0-2.5 = 0.5
Oxygen forms polar covalent bonds with phosphorus: A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond which is formed when there is a difference of electronegativities between the atoms. Electronegativity difference = electronegativity of oxygen - electronegativity of phosphorous = 3.5- 2.19 = 1.31
