There are 16 protons in an atom of sulfur. All isotopes and ions of the same elements will have the same number of protons regardless of the difference in the number of neutrons or electrons. So the information about the atom being "neutral" is unnecessary.

What is the nuclide symbol for the nucleus that contains 16 protons and 16 neutrons?
S=sulfur The specific sulfur could be written 16S32.
How many neutrons in s-33?
34 - 16, the atomic number of sulfur [note correct spelling] or 18.
What is a atom s house that protects its protons and neutron?
nucleus
Why do elements always have the same atomic numbers but not the same atomic mass?
Most elements have isotopes---atoms that have the same number of protons (and hence they are still that element) but different numbers of neutrons. For instance, sulfur found in nature has four stable isotopes: S-32 16 protons 16 neutrons S-33 16 protons 17 neutrons S-34 16 protons 18 neutrons S-36 16 protons 20 neutrons Each of these isotopes has a different mass, but all are sulfur because they have 16 protons.
Were does the three subatomic particles located in the atom?
The three subatomic particles are: Neutrons Protons Electrons. The protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of the atoms. The electrons are found in s, p, d and f orbitals of the energy levels which surround the nucleus.
What is the nuclide symbol for the nucleus that contains 16 protons and 16 neutrons?
S=sulfur The specific sulfur could be written 16S32.
What element contains 16 protons?
what element contains 16 protons? what element contains 10 protons?
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 does potassium's nucleus have?
It has 19. If you look at the periodic table of elements potassium (k)'s atomic number is 19. An atomic number Is how many protons is in it's nucleus. So the answer is 19
Which element Has 16 electrons?
'S' look for it on the periodic table for full name.
How many protons electrons neutrons does sulfur have?
16 protons, and if it isn't an ion ("isn't an ion" means that it has no electric charge), it has 16 electrons. on average, sulfur has 16.065 neutrons, but that's averaged out, so it's a weird number. let's just say most sulfur has 16 neutrons.
How man protons electrons and neutrons are in sulfur?
Sulfur is a chemical element with the symbol S and atomic number 16. It has 16 protons, 16 neutrons and 16 electrons.
How many protons neutrons and electrons are in sulfur?
16 protons16 neutrons16 electrons
How many neutrons in s-33?
34 - 16, the atomic number of sulfur [note correct spelling] or 18.
What is a atom s house that protects its protons and neutron?
nucleus
What element in group 16 has more protons than sodium but fewer than Aragon?
Sulfur (S)
What is the symbol for an ion with 16 protons 16 neutrons and 18 electrons?
S for sulfur because the number of protons tells you the atomic number with is 16 and 16 is sulfur. The electrons means it is an ion with two more electrons than protons. The neutrons have no charge but add mass to the element.
