Am I Correct or Not?

In a neutral atom, the number of protons is ______ the number of electrons. A) more than X B) less than C) equal to * X = Answer*

Each proton brings a +1 change to the atom, and each electron -1. Neutron are neutrals. So the only way to get a neutral atom is to have as many +1 as of -1, hence number of electrons and number of protons must match... the correct answer is C
