How many electrons does an atom with an atomic number of 20 have?

An atom with an atomic number of 20 has 20 electrons. The number of electrons in an atom is equal to its atomic number.


If fluorine has an atomic number of 9 and an atomic mass of 19 how many electrons does fluorine contain?

The number of electrons is always the same as the atomic number. That gives you the number of protons and electrons. The atomic mass has nothing to do with it. What is the atomic number? That is your answer.


How can the number of proton neutron and electron be calculated to get atomic number and atomic mass?

atomic number is the amount of protons, equal to the atomic number, the electrons, minus the mass number atomic number is the amount of protons, equal to the atomic number, the electrons, minus the mass number atomic number is the amount of protons, equal to the atomic number, the electrons, minus the mass number


Does fluorine contain 10 electrons?

it has 9 electrons atomic number= number of protrons and electrons and atomic mass-atomic number=neutrons


Why do you calculate the number of electrons by the atomic mass and number?

You calculate the number of electrons by the atomic mass and number because elements have the same number of electrons as they do protons. The atomic number tells you the number of protons, which is also the number of electrons in a neutral atom. By using the atomic mass to find the number of neutrons, you can determine the overall charge and number of electrons in an atom.


How many electrons in an atom with the atomic number 8?

An atom with atomic number 8 corresponds to oxygen. Oxygen has 8 electrons because the number of electrons in an atom is equal to its atomic number.

Germanium Atomic number is 32 and the number of electrons is 32


How do you get the number of protons electrons and neutrons from the atomic mass number and atomic number?

Number of protons = atomic number Number of neutrons = Atomic Mass (rounded to the nearest whole number) minus the atomic number Number of electrons in a stable element = number of protons Number of electrons in an unstable element = atomic number minus the charge

The atomic number of an element is what?

The atomic number of an element is how many protons and electrons (you must have the same amount of protons as electrons) an element has in it's nucleus. The Atomic number= number of protons= number of electrons.
