Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A particle that has more protons than electrons is
A
positively charged
B
negatively charged
C
neutral
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -If it has more protons than electrons, it is a positive ion.

Detailed explanation-2: -If an object has more protons than electrons, then the net charge on the object is positive. If there are more electrons than protons, then the net charge on the object is negative. If there are equal numbers of protons and electrons, then the object is electrically neutral.

Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -A cation is an ion with positive charge, which means it has more protons (positively-charged particles) than electrons (negatively-charged particles).

Detailed explanation-5: -This results in an imbalance of charge. With more protons than electrons, the particele is positively charged.
