six electrons
A neutral atom of Carbon has 6 protons and 6 electrons
In order to be neutral, carbon needs 14 electrons.
A neutral carbon atom has 6 protons and 6 electrons.
A neutral barium atom has 56 electrons.
Having 6 protons, the neutral atom of carbon also has 6 electrons.
There are four electrons in the outer or valence shell of a neutral carbon atom.
In a neutral carbon atom, there will be 4 electrons in the outer most valence shell.
For the isotope carbon-12: 6 protons, 6 neutrons, 6 electrons
A single atom of Carbon has 6 electrons, with 4 in the outer shell which it will use to react
Protons are always postive, neutrons are always neutral and electrons are always negative. Carbon has no charge because it has as many protons as it has electrons.
13 in the neutral atom, 10 in the Al3+ ion
Carbon's atomic number is 6, therefore it's atoms have 6 protons is their nuclei. If the carbon atom is neutral, it will also have 6 electrons, no matter which isotope of carbon it is.
