If an atom has 17 protons, 15 neutrons, and 20 electrons, what is the atom's electrical charge?

1 answer:

3 0

The overall charge on this ion is -3. Neutrons don’t carry a charge, while protons and electrons carry a net +1 and -1 charge, respectively. In this case, the electrons outweigh the protons by 3, making the overall charge -3.

Hope this helps!
