Neutrons are 'zero' charged. Protons are positively(+) charged. Electrons are negatively(-) charged. For any neutrally charged atom , the number of protons(+) equals the number of electrons(-); the charges balance. However, when an atom loses or gains electrons it becomes a charged species and is called an ION , not an atom. If the number of protons changes then it is a completely different element. Neutrons have no effect on the charge of an atom/ion, they only effect the atomic mass. Here are some examples. Hydrogen has one proton and one electrons ; charges balance. However the hydrogen ion has one proton and no electrons (H^+) Chlorine has two isotopes l different number of neutrons Chlorine - 35 , 17 protons , 18 neutrons and 17 electrons The Chloride(-35) ion has 17 protons , 18 neutrons and 18 electrons (35)Cl^-) , the chloride -35 ion Chlorine - 37, 17 protons , 20 neutrons and 17 electrons The Chloride(-37) ion has 17 protons , 20 neutrons, and 18 electrons (37)Cl^-) , the chloride - 37 ion. The Chloride(-37) ion has 17 protons, 20 neutrons and 18 electrons Notice , for the given element the number of protons remains the same, the different isotopes have different number of neutrons, and the ions have a different number of electrons.
The number of protons is equal to the atomic number. To find the number of neutrons, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass. The number of electrons is equal to the number of protons in a neutral atom.
Atoms are mostly made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons carry a positive charge, neutrons have no charge, and electrons carry a negative charge. The protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus of the atom, while the electrons orbit around the nucleus.
a regular boron atom (5B11 isotope) has six neutrons and five protons
Proton is stable subatomic particle with a unit of positive electric charge and a mass 1,836 times that of the electron.Protons are found in the atomic nucleus along with neutrons. A single proton is the nucleus of an atom of ordinary hydrogen; as such, it is identical to the hydrogen ion (H+). Protons have antimatter counterparts (antiprotons), with the same mass but a negative charge.
Hydrogen (H): 1 proton, 0 neutrons, 1 electron Carbon (C): 6 protons, 6 neutrons, 6 electrons Nitrogen (N): 7 protons, 7 neutrons, 7 electrons Oxygen (O): 8 protons, 8 neutrons, 8 electrons
No, not all nuclei contain both protons and neutrons. Hydrogen-1, the simplest atom, has only one proton in its nucleus and no neutrons. Other elements can have different numbers of protons and neutrons in their nuclei.
There are only one proton and electron. But it contains 2 neutrons.
All chemical elements are formed from protons, neutrons (excepting H-1) and electrons.

A positive atom has only protons and neutrons and no electrons. The only example is Protium which is H+.
There are many different types of ions, having many different quantities of electrons and protons. The H+ ion has one proton and no electrons. That's the simplest.

No,the nucleus of an atom consists of protons and neutrons. The electrons orbit around the nucleus forming an electron cloud. The only exception to this is the atom of hydrogen(H) which nucleus consists only of one proton.
