It depends entirely on what type of atom it is. (Neutral atom is redundant. A "non-neutral" atom is referred to as an ion)
If it is an atom of carbon, for example, there are 6 electrons.
Silicon, on the other hand, has 14 electrons.
There is no set amount - there just has to be the same number of protons as electrons.
The number of electrons in a neutral atom is equal to the amount of protons in the atom.
There would be as many electrons as there are protons.
An atom needs to have as many electrons as it has protons to be electrically neutral. If the numbers are uneven, the molecule is an ion.
The number of electrons in a neutral atom will be the same as the number of protons. The number of protons will vary depending on the element.
The same as the number of protons.
Can atoms become neutral and howAtoms are already neutral because they have both protons which are positive charged and electrons which are negatively charged. it has to be nueral because of the the same number of both negative and positive particles.
Sodium oxide has the chemical formula of Na2O. To find the number of electrons in this molecule, we first need to know the number of electrons for each of its constituent atoms. The number of electrons in a neutral sodium atom is 11 and the number of electrons in a neutral oxygen atom is 8. So, after doing some simple arithmetic, we find that sodium oxide has 2*11 + 1*8 = 30 electrons per molecule.
All of them are electrically neutral, that is, they do not need to appear in ionic form.
Three bonds need to be made, so that's six electrons shared.
8 electrons and yes, the Octet rule states this

In order to be neutral, carbon needs 14 electrons.
No, it has six electrons because its atomic number is 6. Atoms are neutral, so it would need six electrons to counteract with the charge of the six protons. 2 core electrons and 4 valence electrons.
The atomic number for calcium 20 so to make it neutral it should loss 2 electrons

Selenium needs two more electrons.
8 valence electrons
Atoms by themselves are neutral because they contain an equal amount of electrons and protons. An ion could be negatively or positively charged, depending on whether it lost or gained an electron.
All of them are electrically neutral, that is, they do not need to appear in ionic form.
Three bonds need to be made, so that's six electrons shared.

Helium is already full. Helium atoms only need 2 electrons to be full, and Helium, as an element, already has 2.
