There are 17 electrons present in a chlorine atom.
Chlorine's atomic number is 17. Thus chlorine has 17 protons per atom. For it to be electrically neutral then, it must also have 17 electrons per atom.
17.
Chlorine is a metal element. There are 17 electrons in a single atom.
Cl has 7 electrons. If you draw Cl^-, there are 8 electrons and a minus 1 charge. What do you want to draw? And what do you mean by "odd" electrons?
Cl-1 has 17 protons and 18 electrons
In an atom of Cl, there are 7 valence electrons. If you look at a Chemistry Reference table (2002 edition) pages 8 and 9, (visit the link below), you can see that underneath Cl there are the numbers 2-8-7. The last number is the number of valence electrons. This is found for any element on the Period table.
Chlorine has: 17 Protons 17 Electrons (in a neutral atom i.e. not an ion) (Isotope Mass Number - 17) is the number of Neutrons.
In cl-cl bond 1 electron is sahred by each of Cl atom.
17 protons and 17 electrons if it is a neutral atom 17 protons and 18 electrons in a -1 Cl 17 protons and 16 electrons in a +1 Cl
Chlorine is a metal element. There are 17 electrons in a single atom.
Chlorine (Cl) has 17 electrons in its shells.
Cl has 7 electrons. If you draw Cl^-, there are 8 electrons and a minus 1 charge. What do you want to draw? And what do you mean by "odd" electrons?
The Cl atom gains an electron from another atom, and electrons carry a 1- charge. The Cl atom does this because it has 7 outer shell electrons, which isn't very stable, while an outer shell of 8 electrons is stable.
Chlorine is a non metal element. There are 17 electrons in a single atom.
The atomic number of chlorine is 17. So there are 17 protons in chlorine.
Chloride ion is an anion (due to the presence of negative charge)
Cl-1 has 17 protons and 18 electrons
There are 7 valence electrons in a chlorine atom. The atomic number of chlorine is 17, which means it has an electron configuration of 2,8,7. This shows it has 3 shells of electrons, with 7 in the outer level.
Cl atom in HCl has three lone pairs of electrons.
