There are less electrons than protons in a positive ion. More information is needed to determine the exact number.
Here is an example:
How many electrons are in a carbon ion with a positive charge of positive 2e? There are 6 protons in carbon (since it is element number 6). Since it has a charge of +2, there will be 2 less electrons than protons, so the number of electrons would be 4.
Neon atom has 10 positively charged protons and 10 negatively charged electrons.
Lithium is in Gr1. It loses 1 electron to form a positive Li+ ion.
10.
2
A positive sodium ion has a charge of +1, as it has lost one electron. Sodium normally has 11 protons and 11 electrons, so when it loses one electron it becomes a sodium ion with a charge of +1.
Sodium forms an ion with a charge of +1.
an ion
A lithium ion (Li+) has one less electron than a neutral lithium atom. This means a lithium ion has 3 electrons.
The AS3- ion has 36 electrons. This is because arsenic (As) has 33 electrons, and the addition of 3 extra electrons (the negative charge) brings the total to 36 electrons in the ion.
Sodium has 11 electrons.
When sodium becomes an ion, it loses one electron to fulfill the octet rule. A neutral sodium ion has 11 electrons, so an ion will have 10.
A sodium atom has 11 electrons so the total charge of all the electrons in a sodium ion is -10.
neutral atom
The atomic number of sodium is 11 which means it has 11 protons and 11 electrons.
The sodium ion has less electrons than protons whereas the sodium atom has an equal amount of protons and electrons
Na+ sodium ion has 11 protons, 12 neutrons and 10 electrons
A unipositive or uninegative monoatomic ion.
Sodium loses one electron to form a Na+ ion. Sulfur gains two electrons to form a sulfide ion, S2-.
None. The electrons are not in the nucleus for any atoms. They swirl around the nucleus in space but do not enter the nucleus. If electrons are squeezed into nuclei of atoms through gravity in supermassive star collapses, they fuse with protons and become neutrons. Sodium has 11 protons and usually 12 neutrons in their nuclei but no electrons.
The number of electrons are required to predict the charge of the ion.
Both fluoride ion and sodium ion are isoelectronic with neon. That means all have 10 electrons.
