Respuesta :

Answer:

D

Explanation:

An ion is created because an atom doesn't have a balanced number of protons and electrons. A positive ion is created by an atom losing an electron and a negative ion is created by an atom gaining an electron.
The answer is D. What makes a neutral atom neutral is that it has an even number of protons and neutrons. If the number of protons and neutrons are unbalanced, it is now an ion.
