No, the opposite is true.
Electrons have a negative charge, and protons have a positive charge. If i have more protons(plus charges) than electrons(minus charges) overall the atom will have a positive charge(mabye +1 or +2 etc....depending how many more protons there are compared to electrons) If there are more electrons(minus charges) than protons(plus charges) then overall the atom will have a negative charge(mabye -1 or -2 etc....depending how many more electrons there are compared to protons) These charged atoms are known as ions.
No. An 'atom' can not have more electrons than protons because, by definition, an 'atom' is electrically neutral. If an 'atom' loses or gains an electron, it becomes an 'ion' and is electrically charged. An 'ion' with more electrons than protons will be NEGATIVELY charged because electrons carry negative charge.
The charge of electrons is negative and of protons is positive.
The protons in an atom have a positive charge and the electrons in an atom have a negative charge and these balance each other. Neutrons have no charge so they do not factor into it. It would be like adding positive 4(Protons) and negative 4(Electrons). -4+4=0 The zero represents your "no overall charge".
Because in a neutral atom, there are an equal number of positive protons and negative electrons. The equal number causes the charges to cancel out, making the net charge 0.An atom is made of positive protons and neutral neutrons in the nucleus, and negative electrons surrounding the nucleus. An normal atom has the same number of protons and neutrons, so the protons and nuetrons cancel each other out, resulting in an overall charge of zero.

A negative electrical charge occurs when you have more electrons than protons (electrons are negatively charged, and if you have more -'s than +'s the overall charge will be negative).
Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons are neutral and have no charge.

because the number of protons (which have a positive charge of +1) and the number of electrons (which have a negative charge of -1) are the same. when number of protons = number of electrons, overall charge = 0
The neutrons do not affect the charge of an atom. The positive charge is on the proton the equal but negative charge is on the electron.If an atom has more electrons than protons it will have an overall negative charge.
The charge of electrons is negative and of protons is positive.
An Ion. An ion can have an overall positive or negative charge. The negative charge of an electron exactly cancels the positive charge of a proton, so when an atom has an equal number of both, it carries zero charge. An ion with more protons than electrons has a positive charge, and is more specifically termed a cation. An ion that has more electrons than protons, and therefore a negative overall charge, is called an anion.
Pprotons have a positive charge neutrons have no charge and electrons have a negative charge. However the one with the smallest mass is electrons.
The protons in an atom have a positive charge and the electrons in an atom have a negative charge and these balance each other. Neutrons have no charge so they do not factor into it. It would be like adding positive 4(Protons) and negative 4(Electrons). -4+4=0 The zero represents your "no overall charge".
Plus 9, zero, minus 9 respectively.
The atom in a normal state would have two protons to match the two electrons, making the overall charge zero. If the atom is an ion, it would have an mismatched number of protons and electrons, giving it a positive or negative overall charge.
