In order to be neutral, carbon needs 14 electrons.
four
Carbon has four valence electrons, so it will need four more electrons to fill its outer shell.
if its not an ion it has 6
Carbon has four electrons in the outermost energy level, which is energy level two. It needs eight electrons to have this energy level filled.
Carbon needs to have 8 electron in its outermost shell to have it completely filled, 4 more valence electrons than it has in the neutral for of carbon.
Carbon has four valence electrons, so it will need four more electrons to fill its outer shell.
Carbon has 4 outermost electrons.
There are six electrons in two shells.In order to stable carbon, it take electrons from nearest noble gas to stable the carbon.It order to stable carbon it gain -4 electrons from the nearest noble gas Neon.
4 but it will need energy, so carbon gain 4 electrons to achieve a noble gas configuration.
A neutral carbon atom has 6 protons and 6 electrons.
In the non-ionic form, carbon has 6 electrons.
Carbon atoms have 6 electrons, when non-ionized
