These are the only three stable isotopes of Magnesium.
Magnesium has 12 protons in the nucleus.
Mg- 24 has 12 protons and 1 neutrons. No isotope has 11 neutrons
Number of neutrons = Atomic weight - Atomic number (number of prtons) The atomic number of magnesium is 12; the standard atomic weight is circa 24,3. But magnesium has many isotopes (three are natural) and the number of neutrons is variable in the isotopes - from 7 to 28. The most common natural isotope, 24Mg, has 12 neutrons.
All neutrons have a negative charge. That is the reason they are called neutrons.
In an atom protons and neutrons are located in the atomic nucleus.

Any atom of magnesium will have 12 protons.Neutral atoms of Mg-24 will have 12 neutrons and 12 electrons. Mg-25 has 13 neutrons and Mg-26 has 14 neutrons. A magnesium ion will have either 10 or 11 electrons.
Natural isotopes of magnesium have 12, 13 and 14 neutrons.
