THE CORRECT ANSWER IS "C"

Explanation:

Basically, the definition is saying that "in a neutral atom, the atomic number is equal to both the number of protons , and the number of electrons, because, well, they both are the same."

I have also taken the test and got this question, I got a 10 / 10, so I can guarantee this is the correct answer.

The number of neutrons in the atom has been equal to the neutral atoms. Thus, option C is correct.

The atom has been defined as the smallest unit of matter. The atom has been consisted of the positively charged nucleus and the negatively charged electrons revolving around the nucleus.

The number of protons and electrons in the atom has been equal. The protons are the positively charged entities and the neutrons are the neutral entities.

Thus, the number of neutrons in the atom has been equal to the neutral atoms. Thus, option C is correct.
