What is the term for an atom with an unequal number of protons and electrons?

It is called an ion.

Explanation: When an atom has an unequal amount of protons and electrons, it can form an attraction with another.

More electrons- Negative ion (ANION)

More protons- Positive ion

Equal amount- Neutral

Good luck, hope this helps!

2b2t

explanation:

2b2t

on passing the small ampere of electric current through the tube made of ar and hg of cfl generates uv rays which excites the fluorescent and thus emits the high radiation by consumption of just 5- 12 w in comparison to incandescent light which requires more power such as around 40 - 55 w to lighten.

moreover the life span of fluorescent or cfl is around 8000 h whereas the life span of incandescent is around 1200 h

hence, the building installed with incandescent lights bears more electricity bill.
