d. The number of protons and neutrons is always the same in a neutral atomWhich of the following statements about atomic structure is false?
D is false. The number of protons and ELECTRONS are the same in a neutral atom. This makes sence because protons (positive charge) cancel out the electrons (negative) charge, therefore leaving a neural atom.Which of the following statements about atomic structure is false?
a. True
