Two atoms and/or ions that have the same numbers of electrons are called "isoelectronic". Thus, a lithium cation is isoelectronic with a helium atom, because each has a total of two electrons.
As atomic number increases, the number of electrons also increases except for Period 1 because it ends with a number of valence electrons with higher energy , (This pattern means that the elements within a group always have the same number of valence electrons having the result of having similar properties.)
It's in your question. Neutral means balanced out or even. That's why there is the same number of neutrons as electrons.
Carbon Number of Protons/Electrons: 6 Number of Neutrons: 6
This relationship is for an atom and its ion.
protons and electrons are identical in number in an atom
Having a charge it is called an ION. No charge means: same number of protons and electrons.
Isoelectronic means having the same amount of electrons, so Kr is isoelectric with Br.
As atomic number increases, the number of electrons also increases except for Period 1 because it ends with a number of valence electrons with higher energy , (This pattern means that the elements within a group always have the same number of valence electrons having the result of having similar properties.)

Mg2+ has 10 electrons. Neon also has 10 electrons. This means Mg2+ and Ne are isoelectronic (Mg doesn't migrate to Ne, the terminology is isoelectronic meaning having the same number of electrons)

protons and electrons are identical in number in an atom
Carbon and Germanium They all have 4 electrons in their outer orbital
Atoms in the same group (in the same vertical column) of the periodic table have the same number of electrons in their outer shell. A neutral atom has the same number of electrons as it has protons. The number of protons is given by it's atomic number. The electrons are considered to be arranged in "shells." The outermost shell can have from 1 to 8 electrons. The effect of being in the same group is that the atoms within a group have similar reactions.
