Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
What charge do protons have?
A
Positive
B
Neutral
C
Negative
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Protons have a positive electrical charge of one (+1) and a mass of 1 atomic mass unit (amu), which is about 1.67×10−27 kilograms.

Detailed explanation-2: -Two of the subatomic particles have electrical charges: protons have a positive charge while electrons have a negative charge. Neutrons, on the other hand, don’t have a charge.

Detailed explanation-3: -Protons are positively charged sub-atomic particles which are present in the nucleus of an atom. The charge on a proton is equal and opposite to the charge on an electron. The charge on the proton is. 6 × 10-19 C which is very very small.

Detailed explanation-4: -When an object has a positive charge, it has more protons than electrons. Therefore, when an object has a negative charge, then that object contains more electrons than protons.

Detailed explanation-5: -Neutrons have a neutral electric charge (neither negative nor positive) and have slightly more mass than positively charged protons.
