In a neutral atom, the number of protons always equals the number of electrons. (True)

Electrons are less massive than neutrons. (True)

The charge of a proton plus the charge of a neutron is +0, since the charge of a proton is +1 and the charge of a neutron is 0. Therefore, the statement is false.
