Why doesn an atom have an electric charge?

0

Electrical charges come from protons and electrons. Protons have a +1 charge each, and electrons have a -1 charge each. A particle’s total charge is the sum of all the charges of its protons and electrons. All atoms have the same number of protons and electrons. They cancel each other out, making the total charge 0.
