Cl-37 : 17 protons , 20 neutrons , 17 electrons
Compare with
Cl-35 ; 17 protons , 18 neutrons, 17 electrons.
These are two different and common isotopes of chlorine.
Remember 'Different isotopes have a different number of neutrons'. Chemically they react the same.
17 protons, 17 electrons, and 20 neutrons
37
17 electrons. The number of protons and electrons is always the same.
Each atom of chlorine has 17 each of protons and electrons; as shown by the atomic number of chlorine.
18 protons 18 electrons 22 neutrons
Chlorine has an atomic number of 17. Thus, neutral chlorine will have 17 protons and 17 electrons. Chlorine's most common isotope is 35Cl, meaning it has 35 - 17 = 18 neutrons. *****************************2nd Opinion************* Since the question was about a chlorine molecule, shouldn't the answer be about Cl2? 34 p and 36 n
41 protons 41 electrons 52 neutrons
Chlorine exist as two isotopes(same number of electrons and protons but different number of neutrons), although there are traces of one more but we're not to sure. ~70% of Chlorine is Chlorine-35 which contains 17 electrons and 18 neutrons ~30% of Chlorine is Chlorine-37 which contains 17 electrons and 20 neutrons and ≤1% of Chlorine-36........
17 electrons. The number of protons and electrons is always the same.
There are two main isotopes of chlorine. Every chlorine atom has 17 electrons where there are 18 and 20 neutrons in chlorine-35 and chlorine-37 respectively.
The number of protons and electrons is always the same as the atomic number, which for chlorine is 17. The number of neutrons is always the mass number minus the atomic number, which for this isotope is also 17.
No. Sorry.
Chlorine has: 17 Protons 17 Electrons (in a neutral atom i.e. not an ion) (Isotope Mass Number - 17) is the number of Neutrons.
Each atom of chlorine has 17 each of protons and electrons; as shown by the atomic number of chlorine.
The atom had:17 Protons18 Neutrons and17 Electrons(double-checked)
18 protons 18 electrons 22 neutrons
It has 18 neutrons. Its really simple, 35 is the mass number(A) i.e., the total number of neutrons and protons. We know atomic number(Z) of chlorine is 17. This is the number of protons. So A-Z will give us number of neutrons.
Chlorine has the atomic number of 17. To keep it neutral then, it must have 17 protons and 17 electrons. Chlorine's most common isotope is 35Cl. That means it has 35 - 17 = 18 neutrons.
17 protons and 17 electrons in chlorine.
