What does the atomic number of silicon tell you about number of protons neutrons and electrons?
The atomic number of silicon is 14. This means that a silicon atom has 14 protons in its nucleus, and a neutral silicon atom has 14 electrons. The number of neutrons depends on the particular isotope.
How many protons and neutrons and electrons are there in a neutral atom of silicon-28?
A neutral atom of Silicon-27 contains 14 protons, just like any atom of Silicon (Si). Silicon has an atomic number of 14. The most abundant form of Si is Silicon-28, which has 14 neutrons. Silicon-27 has 13 neutrons.
How many valance electrons in an atom of magnesium?
2
What is the relationshp of protons and electrons in a neutral atom?
In any neutral atom, the number of protons = the number of electrons.
How many protons neutrons and electrons are in a rutherfordium atom?
It contains 104 electrons/protons and 159 neutrons.
How many electrons are present in an atom of silicon?
A neutral silicon atom will have 14 electrons, one for each proton in its nucleus. A link follows and can be found below.
How many valence electrons does a neutral atom of silicon have?
A neutral atom of silicon will have 4 valence electrons. The amount of valence electrons that a neutral atom will have can be found by the atoms group number in the periodic table.
A neutral atom of silicon has?
has 14 electrons
What is an atom that has gained or lost electrons and is no longer neutral?
Valance electron
How many electrons does a neutral silicon Si atom have?
14
A neutral atom of silicon has how many electrons?
It has 14 electrons with an electron arrangement of 2,8,4
How many valance electrons does Au have?
Au, gold, is atom number 79, so in its (neutral) elemental form it has 79 electrons.
What does the atomic number of silicon tell you about number of protons neutrons and electrons?

How many protons and neutrons and electrons are there in a neutral atom of silicon-28?
A neutral atom of Silicon-27 contains 14 protons, just like any atom of Silicon (Si). Silicon has an atomic number of 14. The most abundant form of Si is Silicon-28, which has 14 neutrons. Silicon-27 has 13 neutrons.
How many electrons do atoms need to be neutral?
It depends entirely on what type of atom it is. (Neutral atom is redundant. A "non-neutral" atom is referred to as an ion) If it is an atom of carbon, for example, there are 6 electrons. Silicon, on the other hand, has 14 electrons.
How many valance electrons are in the atom phosphorus?
There are 5 valence electrons in the atom phosphorus.
How are valence electrons related to stability?
8 valance electrons in valance shell means that atom is stable.
