What is the nuclear charge of an atom with a mass of 23 and an atomic number of 11?

The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus. These are the only nuclear particles carrying charge; each carries a charge of 1 elementary unit. answer = 11 just because that is the amount of protons it has and therefore positive charge

The whole charge of the nucleus of an atom is due to the number of protons that are present inside the nucleus. Thus the total nuclear charge of atom is +11 .
What is atom?
Atom is the smallest particle of any element, molecule or compound. Atom can not be further divided. Atoms contains** nucleus in its center and electron** that revolve around the atom in fixed orbit.
In the** nucleus**, proton and neutron are present. Electron has** -1 charge** while proton has** +1 charge**. Neutron is neutral that is it has** no charge**. So overall the charge of nucleus is due to only** proton**, not by neutron
Since it it given that atomic number is 11 that means number of proton is also 11 because atomic number is equal to number of proton only so all 11 proton will be inside the nucleus. Each protons will carry +1 charge. Thus the total nuclear charge of atom is** +11**.

The nuclear charge of an atom with an atomic number of 11 is +11, as this number represents the total number of protons in the nucleus. Protons carry a positive charge, hence the nuclear charge equals the number of protons. In this case, with 11 protons, the nuclear charge is +11.
