How many electrons does an atom of argon possess?
Same amount as the Proton count - 18
What element has one more proton then argon?
potasium
What is the bhor model for argon?
Proton 18 and neutron 22.
What is one less proton than argon?
Chlorine, with the atomic number 17 has one less proton than argon, with the atomic number 18. The atomic number is the number of protons.
Can Ar-40 change back to K-40 talking about elements?
The radioactive isotope for Argon is Argon 40. It is also differs from Potassium 40 by 1 proton. Its one proton above Potassium 40.
Which element has the fewest proton between argon and nitrogen?
The element which has the smallest atomic number has the smallest number of protons. In this case, argon has a proton number of 18 (therefore it has 18 protons in each atom), but nitrogen has fewer protons - it has a proton number of just 7, meaning that it has seven protons per nitrogen atom.
What element has one less proton than Argon?
Thallium (Tl) has one more proton then mercury (Hg), mercury has 79 protons, Thallium has 80 protons.
How many protons are in the nucleus of Ar atoms?
It depends on the identity of the atom. For example, Hydrogen has one proton, but Helium has two.
Are neon and argon atoms the same?
No. Neon atoms and Argon atoms have different atomic numbers. Which means they have different numbers of protons.
What is the common oxidation numbers of argon?
Argon doesn't form compounds and so its oxidation number is zero
Are elements organized by atomic weight and physical properties?
Elements are scientificaly organised according to their Proton numbers. Those with smaller proton numbers come first.
Why are atomic numbers listed as whole numbers?
The atomic number is derived from how many protons are present in the nucleus of an atom. Becaue you cannot have a fraction of a proton present in an atom, atomic numbers must be non negative integers.
