  • Ionic compound makes a covalent molecule. An atom is made up of protons, electron and neutrons. Protons and neurons are found in the nucleus, electrons are found in the shells orbiting it. Protons are positive with a mass of +1, Neutrons are neutral with a mass of +1, Electrons are negative with a mass of 0. For any atom the proton number is always equal to electrons, therefore the element doesn't carry a charge.
