Neutral atoms have ___ protons and electrons?

The same number of protons and electrons.

Explanation:

All the elements on the periodic table are neutral since by default, their atomic numbers are equal to the number of protons and electrons. Since neutrons don't have a charge, the negative charge in electrons (e⁻) and the positive charge in protons (H⁺ ions) cancel out each other.

When the atoms are not neutral, they are called ions.
