1. Which of the following is neutrally charged? c. an electron
b. a compound d. a proton
a. an ion
d. a proton

B. A compound

Explanation:

An ion is defined as a charged particle, so it's not going to be that. Ions can be positively or negatively charged.

Electrons are tiny particles, smaller than an atom, that revolve around the nucleus. They have a negative charge. So they are not neutral either

Protons are also a part of atoms, like electrons are. An atom is neutral overall. This is because protons have a positive charge that balances out the negative charge of electrons.

So, the only answer option we have left is for a compound. So, that's our answer!

c. an electron

Explanation:

A neutral charge is the electrochemical occurrence where an atom has an equal number of electrons and protons. Such an atom is neither positively charged nor negatively charged because the protons and electrons balance each other out

the answer is na (sodium)
