8 electrons
Thorium has 90 electrons.
You can determine the number of unpaired electrons in an element by examining its electron configuration. Unpaired electrons are found in the outermost energy level, and you can count them by looking for half-filled or singly occupied orbitals in the notation of the element.
Gold is a metal element. There are 79 electrons in a single atom.
Element X with 72 protons will have 72 electrons in a neutral state. The number of protons in an element is equal to the number of electrons in that element's neutral atom.
Zinc has 30 electrons
Thorium has 90 electrons.
Argon has 18 electrons.
In a chemical element, there are the same amount of protons as there are electrons. In the chemical element copper, there are currently 29 electrons.
