Since Selenium has an atomic number of 34, it has 34 protons and electrons at its elemental resting state. The most common isotopes have 44 and 46 neutrons, which you get from subtracting the atomic number from the Atomic Mass.

There are no electrons bound in the nucleus. The electrons form a cloud around the nucleus on the average of several hundred nuclear radii away. Occasionally an electron may dip down inside a nucleus and get captured if there is a deficiency of neutrons. This is called electron capture and results in a change of element to Z-1. Selenium-73 (Z=34, N=39) does this and changes to As-73, which is also radioactive by electron capture.

How many protons neutrons and electrons are in a selenium atom?

Selenium (Se) has an atomic number of 34 which means in a balance atom Se will have 34 protons and 34 electrons then Se has a mass of 79 so to get the neutrons we minus the protons from the mass and we get 45 final answer: Neutrons: 45 Protons:34 Electrons: 34
