Yes. Tin (Sn on your Periodic Table) has an atomic number of 50, which means it has 50 protons and 50 electrons. Mercury (Hg) has an atomic number of 80, which gives it 30 more each of protons and electrons.

What is am atom that has more or fewer electrons than it has protons?

An atom with more electrons than protons is called an anion and has a negative charge. Conversely, an atom with fewer electrons than protons is called a cation and has a positive charge. These charged atoms are formed through the process of gaining or losing electrons.


What does a charge on a ion indicate about the number of protons and electrons?

The charge on an ion indicates the imbalance between the number of protons and electrons. If an ion has a positive charge, it has more protons than electrons. If it has a negative charge, it has more electrons than protons.


Does most atoms have more protons than electrons?

no a neutral atom does not have more protons than it does atoms. if it really were neutral it would have the equal amount of electrons and protons. if an atom had more protons than neutrons, it would be a positive atom and vice versa. so to answer this question. NO A NEUTRAL ATOM DOES NOT HAVE MORE PROTONS THAN NEUTRONS.


What is the atoms charge if there are more protons than electrons in the atom?

positive!(: more protons = positive more electrons = negative say an atom has 2 more protons than electrons, it has a charge of 2+ if it had 3 more electrons than protons, it has a charge of 3- if electrons are taken away, what will the charge be? answer: positive, because there are less electrons same works vice versa. hope i helped! source: 8th grade science class(:

What has more electrons than protons?

An ion with a negative charge has more electrons than protons. This means that the number of electrons exceeds the number of protons in the atom, giving it a net negative charge.

When an atom has more electrons than protons it is?

An atom with more protons than electrons is a cation.


Atom that has equal number of protons and electrons?

That is called a neutral atom, because it has no electric charge.

What is true of all atoms that are anions A more electrons than protons B more protons than electrons C fewer protons than neutral atom of same element D more neutrons than protons E net charge is 1-?

Answer A is correct: there are more electrons than protons. However, if a particle is an anion, it is not an atom. Atoms are electrically neutral.

Do all atoms that are anions have more electrons than protons?

Atom that are anions have two more electrons than it has in protons.


What is Electrical charge with more electrons than protons?

Negative ... which is what electrons are, (whereas protons are positive).


What does it mean when an atom has more protons then electrons?

When an atom has more protons than electrons it is called an ion. This is a positively charged particle because it has more protons than electrons, thus the positive charge takes over.
