The overall charge of an atom is ________ if the number of electrons is ________ than the number of protons.
miss Akunina [59]
The overall charge of an atom is positive if the number of electrons is less than the number of protons. Electrons are negatively charged particles while protons are positively charged particles. If there are less electrons as compared to the number of protons in an atom, then naturally the overall charge of the atom would be positive since there are excess protons. Another case would be that the overall charge of an atom is negative if the number of electrons is greater than the number of protons. An atom having more electrons than the number of the protons present would lead to a negative value of the charge since there are excess electrons.

Anna71 [15]

I'm not sure about part 1, you may need to google it, but part two is 11 protons, 11 electrons and 12 neutrons. You can find protons and electrons by just looking at the atomic number, and you can find neutrons by subtracting the atomic number from the atomic mass.
