12 protons, 12 electrons
Mass number - 12 = protons
24 - 12 = 12 neutrons in a neutral element.
Look at the Periodic Table and coorespond the numbers I gave. Look at element 12 = Magnesium.
The magnesium ion [Ne]2s22p6 is the electronic configuration of the noble gas closest to it in the PT (Ne = Neon). Mg 1s22s22p63s2 and Ne 1s22s22p6.
Select the answer that correctly indicates the number of protons and electrons for this atom or ion
it has alot plus this better not be a hw ? if it is ima find u
Magnesium's atomic number is 12. Thus it has 12 positively charged protons in its nucleus. To counteract this charge, magnesium also has 12 negatively charged electrons in its electron cloud.

Magnesium has 12 protons and electrons and 12, 13 or 14 neutrons, depending on the isotope.
The atomic number of magnesium is 12. So there are 12 protons
Magnesium has an atomic number of 12, so there are 12 protons in any atom of this element. The number of protons do not change if it is an isotope of an element.
protons - 12 electrons - 12 neutrons - 12 atomic mass - 24.3050 solid at room temperature
12 protons, 12 electrons, 12 neutrons
2 electrons orbit in the outer shell. If its a neutral atom, then it will have the same number of electrons as protons. Magnesium has 12 protons and 12 electrons.

Magnesium has an atomic number of 12, therefore it has 12 protons, and therefore 12 electrons.
12, the same as the number of protons indicated by magnesium having an atomic number of 12.

Atomic # : 12 Mass Number : 24 # of Protons : 12 #of Neutrons : 12 # of Electrons : 12
This would be magnesium, based on the number of protons. Since the protons is equal to the number of electrons it is a neutral atom. Given the number of protons in the atom, the isotope would be magnesium-26.
Magnesium has 12 protons and electrons and 12, 13 or 14 neutrons, depending on the isotope.
The atomic number of magnesium is 12. So there are 12 protons
ans 12 atomic no. of Mg is 12 and in Mg2+ there is a lose of only 2 electrons so no. of protons shall be unchanged.
12; and that would be a magnesium atom.
