A neutral oxygen atom has 8 electrons regardless of the isotope.
A neutral oxygen atom usually has 8 protons and 8 electrons. In oxygen-18 isotope, the number of protons remain the same (8), but the number of neutrons is increased to 10, making it oxygen-18. So, a neutral oxygen-18 atom would still have 8 electrons.
A neutral atom contains the same number of electrons as protons. Therefore, an atom with 18 protons will also have 18 electrons to maintain an overall neutral charge.
There are 8 electrons in a single neutral oxygen atom.The atomic number of oxygen is 8, because it has 8 protons in its nucleus. In an elemental, neutral, atom of oxygen the number of electrons will match the number of protons. There are 8 electrons in a neutral oxygen atom.Note that oxygen can become an ion under certain circumstances, and we need to specify the neutral atom to state how many electrons there are in oxygen.
The neutral atom has 14 electrons.
Argon-40 has 18 electrons. This is because argon has an atomic number of 18, which indicates the number of protons (and electrons) in a neutral atom of argon.
A neutral potassium atom would contain 19 electrons because the atomic number of potassium is 19, which represents the number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom.

Each isotope of oxygen (15 to 19) has the same number of protons (8), hence the neutral atoms have 8 electrons.
O-18 atom has 8 protons, 8 electrons and 10 neutrons.
There are 8 electrons in a single neutral oxygen atom.The atomic number of oxygen is 8, because it has 8 protons in its nucleus. In an elemental, neutral, atom of oxygen the number of electrons will match the number of protons. There are 8 electrons in a neutral oxygen atom.Note that oxygen can become an ion under certain circumstances, and we need to specify the neutral atom to state how many electrons there are in oxygen.
The neutral atom has 14 electrons.
A neutral atom contains the same number of electrons as protons. Therefore, an atom with 18 protons will also have 18 electrons to maintain an overall neutral charge.
The isotope oxygen-18 has the mass number of 18. The atomic number of oxygen is 8, so all of its atoms, regardless of isotope, have 8 protons. In a neutral oxygen atom the number of protons equals the number of electrons, so it has 8 electrons. The number of neutrons equals the mass number minus the atomic number, which for oxygen-18 is (18 - 8), so there are 10 neutrons.
There are 35 electrons in a neutral boron atom arranged in the order 2, 8, 18, 7.
Oxygen-18 has 8 electrons and protons; the number of neutrons is 10.
A neutral potassium atom would contain 19 electrons because the atomic number of potassium is 19, which represents the number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom.
An atom with 15 protons has 15 electrons to balance the charge. The number of neutrons does not affect the number of electrons in an atom.
A calcium atom has 20 electrons. To achieve a charge of +2, calcium will lose 2 electrons, leaving it with 18 electrons.
