Why do isotopes represent the same element?

Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have differing numbers of neutrons. An example would be Cl-35 and Cl-37. Cl-37 has a larger amount of neutrons than Cl-35 has.


How many neutrons are present in 50 atoms of Cl that have a 50-50 mixture of Cl-35 and Cl-37?

There are always 50 atoms in 50 atoms of any mixture of chlorine isotopes.


How many protons neutrons and electrons are in chlorine 37?

Cl-37 : 17 protons , 20 neutrons , 17 electrons Compare with Cl-35 ; 17 protons , 18 neutrons, 17 electrons. These are two different and common isotopes of chlorine. Remember 'Different isotopes have a different number of neutrons'. Chemically they react the same.


How many protons and electrons does chlorine has?

Number of Protons = Number of electrons = 17.The number of neutrons depends on the isotope. Cl-35 and Cl-37 isotopes have 18 and 20 isotopes respectively.


Which element from the periodic table has 17 electrons?

Chlorine!!! Chlorine has two stable isotopes ; Cl-35 & Cl-37 The subatomic particle arrangemtn in them is Cl-35 ; 17 protons, 18 neutrons, 17 electrons Cl-37 ; 17 protons, 20 neutrons, 17 electrons.


Does Cl 37 have 20 protons 20 electrons and 20 neutrons?

Chlorine-37 has 17 protons, 17 electrons and 20 neutrons.


How many protons and neutrons in Cl-37?

The number of protons in Chlorine is relative to its atomic number of 17. The amount of protons will not change, or will become a different element. The 37 refers to the amount of nucleons in the element. The total nucleons is calculated by adding the amount of protons and neutrons, so if we know there are 17 protons, 37-17= 20 neutrons. There are 17 protons and 20 neutrons in Cl-37.


Is the mass of an atom of chlorine-37 greater or less than an atom of chlorine -35?

The mass of Cl-37 is greater than that of Cl-35. Because Cl-37 has two neutrons more than Cl-35.


How many protons neutrons electrons in the nucleus of chlorine?

Chlorine atom has 17 protons and 17 electrons. The number of neutrons depends on the isotope considered. Chlorine has four isotopes: Cl-35, Cl-36, Cl-37 and Cl-38 with 18, 19, 20 and 21 neutrons respectively. However out of these, Cl-35 and Cl-37 are the most stable isotopes.


How many protons and neutrons are in an chlorine?

Chlorine found on the earth is a mixture of two stable (non-radioactive) isotopes, Cl-35 and Cl-37. All chlorine atoms, by definition, have 17 protons in the nucleus. The Cl-35 atoms, which make up most (75.77%) of the total, have 35-17 = 18 neutrons, while the Cl-37 atoms, which make up 24.23% of the total, have 37-17 = 20 neutrons. You can find these numbers on Wikipedia for any chemical element. Look for the bottom of the element properties sidebar on the right side of the page for the section "Most stable isotopes".


How many protons and electrons and neutrons does the element chloride have?

Protons=17 Neutrons depend on isotope but most common is 18, and electrons depend on compound however by it self cl has 17 but it steals an electron from other elements to get 18
