Question

directions: type in the box. study the table which atom has a positive charge?

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the charge for each atom

The charge of an atom is calculated as \( \text{Charge}=\text{Number of protons}-\text{Number of electrons} \).
For atom \( W \): \( 3 - 3=0 \)
For atom \( X \): \( 53 - 53 = 0 \)
For atom \( Y \): \( 55-54 = 1 \)
For atom \( Z \): \( 1 - 1=0 \)

Answer:

\( Y \)
