chlorine atom has 17 electrons when it accepts one more it becomes chloride ion so chloride has total 18 electrons, isoelectronic with Argon.
The chloride ion has 18 electrons.
A chloride ion has 18 electrons, giving it a valence of -1.
There are 7 valence electrons in chlorine atom and 8 valence electrons in chloride ion.
Chloride is an ion, not an atom. It has 18 electrons which are 2, 8, 8 in the first three quantum levels respectively.

No. By definition an ion is electrically charged and so must have a different number of protons and electrons. A chloride ion has 17 protons and 18 electrons.
There are 18 electrons in a chloride ion.
The chloride ion has 18 electrons.

A chloride ion has 18 electrons, giving it a valence of -1.
The chloride ion (Cl-) has 8 electrons on the outermost energy level.
chloride ion is formed when chlorine atom adds one electron. Chloride ion thus has 17 protons and 18 electrons.
There are 7 valence electrons in chlorine atom and 8 valence electrons in chloride ion.
A neutral atom has an equal number of protons and electrons. Protons are positively charged, and electrons are negatively charged. Therefore if you have an ion with a -1 charge, it has one extra electron. So your ion has 85 protons.
The number of electrons is 10.
