Three. Since the atom is neutral the number of protons and electrons will be equivalent. Lithium is atomic number 3 indicating there are 3 protons in the element, hence three electrons.
The neutral atom of lithium has 3 electrons.
Lithium loses one electron when fulfilling the octet rule. A neutral atom of lithium will have the same number of electrons as protons, 3. Therefore, a lithium ion will have one less electron, 2.
There are 17 electrons i a neutral atom of chlorine.
A neutral atom of helium has 2 electrons.
Neon has ten electrons and as a Nobel gas is generally neutral
The neutral atom of lithium has 3 electrons.
Lithium's atomic number is 3. Thus, it has 3 protons in each atom, all of which have a +1 charge. To be electrically neutral then, lithium must also have 3 electrons per atom.
A lithium ion (Li+) has one less electron than a neutral lithium atom. This means a lithium ion has 3 electrons.
3, the same as the number of protons, which is the same as the atomic number.
Lithium loses one electron when fulfilling the octet rule. A neutral atom of lithium will have the same number of electrons as protons, 3. Therefore, a lithium ion will have one less electron, 2.

A neutral lithium atom has 3 electrons, the same as the number of protons, which is the atomic number of lithium. There is no lithium ion with a charge of 7+. If you mean lithium with a mass number of 7, the number of protons is 3 and the number of neutrons is 4.
A neutral atom of fluorine contains 7 valence electrons.
5 electrons because no. of protons= no. of electrons
