How many number neutrons magnesium?

A stable magnesium atom has 12, 13 or 14 neutrons. The atom with 12 neutrons is the most common one.


In a magnesium atom where are the protons and neutrons?

In an atom protons and neutrons are located in the atomic nucleus.


How many neutrons are in a atom of magnesium?

Number of neutrons = Atomic weight - Atomic number (number of prtons) The atomic number of magnesium is 12; the standard atomic weight is circa 24,3. But magnesium has many isotopes (three are natural) and the number of neutrons is variable in the isotopes - from 7 to 28. The most common natural isotope, 24Mg, has 12 neutrons.


What is a particle in the nucleus of an atom that does not have a charge?

Neutrons are "neutral;" they have no charge.


Does an atom with more neutrons have a positive charge?

No. Neutrons have no charge. They are neutral ... the main reason they're called NEUtrons.The total charge on an atom is not affected by the number of neutrons in its nucleus.


in an atom the particle with no charge is what?

neutran


What is the charge on an atom of magnesium?

The neutral atom of magnesium has no electrical charge; the ion is bivalent.


Which part of an atom is neutrally charge?

The neutrons - in the nucleus of the atom.


Does an atom have a charge if the neutrons equals the protons?

It depends on the amount of electrons in the outer shells. The neutrons do not affect the charge of an atom as they are already neutron. There is only a charge if there is a difference in protons and electrons, not protons and neutrons.


How many protons are there in the nucleus of a magnesium ion?

Any atom of magnesium will have 12 protons.Neutral atoms of Mg-24 will have 12 neutrons and 12 electrons. Mg-25 has 13 neutrons and Mg-26 has 14 neutrons. A magnesium ion will have either 10 or 11 electrons.


What particles in a atom's nucleus has no charge?

neutrons


What element has 12 protons and 10 neutrons?

Any atom, ion, or isotope with 12 protons is going to be magnesium. Only the number of protons in the nucleus will determine the element. But with the information about the number of neutrons, the specific isotope can also be determined - 22Mg.
