A hydrogen atom has one proton, two neutrons, and no electrons. Is this atom neutrally charged? Explain
your answer.

Sagot :

Even if it isn't a hydrogen atom, it would be positive because the proton is positively charged and then there are no other charges, so it's positive.

It is an ion.

What is hydrogen atom?

A hydrogen atom is an atom of the chemical element hydrogen.

The electrically neutral atom contains a single positively charged proton and a single negatively charged electron bound to the nucleus by the Coulomb force.

An atom is a neutral species.

Hence, it must have same number of electrons and protons. On other hand, ions have charge.

So, the number of protons and electrons are not same.

According to the question,

Hydrogen has one proton, two neutrons, and no electrons.

This signifies that overall charge of species is +1.

Hence,  it is an ion.
