The number of electrons that a nucleus has is equal to the elements' atomic number, found on the Periodic Table. In the instance of neon (Ne), its atomic number is 10; therefore, it has 10 protons.

What is the general atomic number of neon?

The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. The number of protons in an atom is what gives the atom its elemental identity. The number of neutrons can change resulting in different isotopes of the same element. The number of electrons can change, resulting in different valence states of the same element. If the number of protons changes, then an atom of neon is no longer neon. So the atomic number of neon is always 10, because neon always has 10 protons.

Is neon lithium?

No. Lithium is an element with atomic number 3 (or 3 protons) and neon is an element with atomic number 10 (or 10 protons). Both are not same.


what element has 10 protons 10 electrons and 12 neutrons?

The element with 10 protons is neon (atomic number 10). Since the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons in a neutral atom, neon also has 10 electrons. With 12 neutrons, the isotope of neon described is neon-22.

How many protons neutrons and electrons would an atom of neon have?

- The atomic symbol is only an abridged form of the name of a chemical element. - The chemical symbol of neon is Ne; the atomic number is 10. - The atomic number is equal to the number of protons and electrons. - Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - Atomic number
