Recall that a neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons.
Identify the atomic number of carbon, which represents the number of protons in the nucleus of a carbon atom.
The atomic number of carbon is 6, meaning it has 6 protons.
Since the atom is neutral, the number of electrons must also be 6 to balance the positive charge of the protons.
Therefore, a neutral carbon atom has 6 electrons.
