∙ 12y agoZinc always has 30 protons. That's what makes it zinc. Proton count determines elemental identity. Always. In the neutral atom of zinc, there will be 30 electrons. There are several stable isotopes of Zinc, and they are 64Zn, 66Zn, 67Zn, 68Zn and 70Zn, and they have 34, 36, 37, 38, and 40 neutrons, respectively. And those are just the stable ones. Zinc has a couple of dozen different unstable isotopes, and a few of them occur naturally, and a bunch were created in the physics lab.

∙ 14y agoProtons = electrons = 30 = atom number
Neutrons (depends on which isotope) = Mass number - atom number = (variable 64 till 70) - 30 =
= 34 - 40, but 31 and 39 are not stable isotopesin nature.

How many protons are in an oxide ion?
There are 8 protons and 10 electrons in an oxide ion.
The net charge on a sulfur (S) ion is 2-. The ion has how many protons and how many electrons?
The ion S(2-) has 16 protons and 18 electrons.
How many protons and electrons in Be2 plus ION?
Be2+ ion has 4 protons and 2 electrons
How do you tell if an ion is positive or negative from a diagram?
By seeing how many protons to electrons there are. More protons, the Ion is positive. More electrons, the Ion is negative.
How many protons and neutrons and electrons does the ion Na 1?
Na+ sodium ion has 11 protons, 12 neutrons and 10 electrons

How many protons and electrons in Be2 plus ION?
Be2+ ion has 4 protons and 2 electrons
How do you tell if an ion is positive or negative from a diagram?
By seeing how many protons to electrons there are. More protons, the Ion is positive. More electrons, the Ion is negative.
How many electrons and protons does an ion have?
There are many different types of ions, having many different quantities of electrons and protons. The H+ ion has one proton and no electrons. That's the simplest.
How many protons and electrons are in chlorine ions?
chlorine ion has 17 protons and 18 electrons.
How many protons are in a ion with 86 electrons and a -1 charge?
A neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons. Protons are positively charged, and electrons are negatively charged. Therefore if you have an ion with a -1 charge, it has one extra electron. So your ion has 85 protons.
How many electrons and protons are found in sulfur ion if the symbol for sulfur is 32 16 S2?
This ion has 16 protons and 18 electrons.
How many protons and neutrons and electrons does the ion Na 1?
Na+ sodium ion has 11 protons, 12 neutrons and 10 electrons
Number of protons neutrons and electrons in zinc?
When it comes to zinc, the amount of neutrons is considerably higher than the number of protons and electrons. In zinc there are 30 protons include, 35 neutrons and 30 electrons. Unless you are dealing with Ion, the number of protons is always equal to the number of electrons.
