A. Label P on the blank particles inside the circle (together with the neutrons) and label E on the 4 particles that are moving in orbits outside the circle.
B. Electrons..
C. If protons leave the atom, the atom becomes negatively charged, and if electrons leave the atom, the atom will become positively charged.
"If you could magically make two neutrons in the nucleus of an atom disappear, the atomic number and the electrical charge of that atom would remain unchanged. Neutrons do not carry an electrical charge so adding or removing them from the nucleus does not change the electrical charge of the nucleus." -education.jlab.com
