Question

What is the number of protons in a neutral atom with 31 electrons and 38 neutrons?

Answer 1

31 protons

Step-by-step explanation:

Protons are positively charged and electrons are negatively charged so if it is a neutrally charged atom (which most are) the protons and electrons will be equal.

Answer 2

31

I think. Protons and electrons share the same number as well as the atomic number.
