An atom containing an equal number of protons and electrons is called a what atom

neutron atom

The proton and electron count of an atom are equal only when the atom is neutral in charge. ... The electrons are found in orbitals surrounding the nucleus. In order for the atom to remain electrically neutral the protons and electrons must balance each other.The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom is known as the atomic number, Z. It is the same as the number of electrons around the nucleus of the electrically-neutral atom. The mass number of an atom is equal to the total number of protons and neutrons. Particle. Charge.Covalent bonding occurs when pairs of electrons are shared by atoms. Atoms will covalently bond with other atoms in order to gain more stability, which is gained by forming a full electron shell. By sharing their outer most (valence) electrons, atoms can fill up their outer electron shell and gain stability.A particular atom will have the same number of protons and electrons and most atoms have at least as many neutrons as protons. An element is a substance that is made entirely from one type of atom. ... A compound is a substance made from two or more different elements that have been chemically joined.

the entire statement is true and correct.
