No. By definition an ion is electrically charged and so must have a different number of protons and electrons. A chloride ion has 17 protons and 18 electrons.
chloride ion is formed when chlorine atom adds one electron. Chloride ion thus has 17 protons and 18 electrons.
Iodide ion or I- ion
Chlorine has: 17 Protons 17 Electrons (in a neutral atom i.e. not an ion) (Isotope Mass Number - 17) is the number of Neutrons.
Protons are positively charged and electrons are negatively charged. An ion with 8 protons and 10 electons would have a charge of 2- as there are 2 more electrons than protons.As this ion has 8 protons is must have an atomic number of 8 (oxygen) so the species in question is O2-.If an ion has more protons than electrons it will be positively charged.
an ion, or ionized
A neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons. Protons are positively charged, and electrons are negatively charged. Therefore if you have an ion with a -1 charge, it has one extra electron. So your ion has 85 protons.
Chlorine has 17 protons and an atom of Chlorine would have 17 electrons. However a Chloride Ion will have one more electron ie 18 electrons and will be negatively charged.
chloride ion is formed when chlorine atom adds one electron. Chloride ion thus has 17 protons and 18 electrons.
Iodide ion or I- ion
Protons = 17, electrons = 18There are two isotopes differing in neutron number only :Cl-35 (75%) having 35-17= 18 neutronsCl-37 (25%) having 37-17= 20 neutrons
Chloride ion like the chlorine atom has seventeen(17) protons. In an atom the number of protons and electrons is equal. However, in an ion the number of protons remains the same, BUT THE NUMBER OF ELECTRONS is different. So for chlorine atom there are 17 protons and 17 electrons. However, the chloride ion there are 17 protons and 18 electrons. This difference is indicated by 17(+) & 18(-) or (+)17 - 18 = -1 . So the chloride ion symbol is written as 'Cl^(-)'. The 'one' is never shown. NB A negative ion is given the name ' ANION;, NNB Do not confuse with 'Neutrons'. Different numbers of neutrons are referred to as ISOTOPES. Chlorine exhibits two principal isotopes. They are Chlorine-35 and Chlorine-37. Overall the proportions of these two isotpes is such that chlorine is given the atomic mass of 35.5. However, the number of protons remains the same at '17', and the number of electrons can still vary between the two isotopic atoms and ions.

There are 18 electrons in a chloride ion.
Yes, unless the atom is an ion.
The sodium ion has less electrons than protons whereas the sodium atom has an equal amount of protons and electrons
The number of electrons should equal the number of protons, otherwise you have an ion.
