Explanation:

Electrons have electric charge of -1 and the number of electrons in an atom is equal to the number of protons. ... Heavier atoms tend to have more neutrons than protons, but the number of electrons in an atom is always equal to the number of protons. So an atom as a whole is electrically neutral.

Hope this helped!

Hope U have a great day!
