Four.
A single atom of Carbon has 6 electrons, with 4 in the outer shell which it will use to react
nitrogen has 5 valence electrons. carbon has 4 valence electrons.
The neutral carbon atom has 6 electrons.
In all there are 6 electrons, but the electrons are distributed over 2 shells. In the first shell, there are 2 electrons, and in the second there are 4 electrons. Note that this applies to the neutral atom of carbon.
there are 12 electrons in carbon. you can find this out by looking at the "ATOMIC NUMBER"
A neutral carbon atom has 6 electrons.
A carbon-12 atom has 6 electrons. The atomic number of carbon is 6, which determines the number of electrons in a neutral carbon atom.
The neutral atom is Carbon, but other ions can have only 6 electrons.
An electrically neutral carbon atom has the same number of electrons as it does protons: 6, which is equal to its atomic number.
The Lewis dot diagram for carbon monoxide (CO) shows a carbon atom with four valence electrons and an oxygen atom with six valence electrons. The carbon atom shares two electrons with the oxygen atom, forming a double bond.
NO
6 protons, 6 electrons and 6 protons in carbon-12 atom
