Naturally occurring zinc (Zn) is composed of the 5 stable isotopes 64Zn, 66Zn, 67Zn, 68Zn, and 70Zn with 64Zn being the most abundant (48.6% natural abundance). Twenty-one radioisotopes have been characterised with the most abundant and stable being 65Zn with a half-life of 244.26 days, and 72Zn with a half-life of 46.5 hours. All of the remaining radioactive isotopes have half-lives that are less than 14 hours and the majority of these have half lives that are less than 1 second.

How many protons does zinc (zn) have?
Zinc has 30 protons.
What is the most common isotope of uranium?
The most common isotope of zinc is the one with mass number 64; the atomic number of zinc is 30, which means each zinc nucleus contains 30 protons, and the mass number is defined as the sum of the numbers of neutrons and protons. Therefore, the number of neutrons is (64 - 30) or 34.
Why does ZnOH2 Dissolve in excess OH?
The formation of the soluble Zn(OH)4- ion (tetrahydroxidozincate ion)
Is gold a noble gas?
No, gold is a transition metal.
What is element number 30?
The element with an atomic number of 30 is zinc. This is a metal which has 30 protons, as given by its atomic number. Zinc is sometimes used in high school labs to study oxidation-reduction reactions.
How many protons does zinc (zn) have?
Zinc has 30 protons.
What is the ion that has 30 protons and 28 electrons?
The number of protons = atomic numberThe number of electrons = atomic number - net ion charge (no charge means not ion)The number of neutrons = mass number - atomic numberAlways start with protons if they are given. If they are not given, use the other numbers to figure out how many protons there are. The 9 protons in this question immediately tell you that the atomic number is 9. This is a dead giveaway as to which element is being discussed. Just look on the periodic table for the atomic number of 9, which is... Flourine! The number of electrons will tell you whether this is an ion or not. Ions are not stable (neutral). This means that they have a negative or positive charge. If you know how to draw a shell diagram, you can place the electrons. If all shells are filled completely and there are no extra electrons in unfilled outer shell, then it is not an ion.
Why is the oxidation number of zinc 2 plus?
Oxidation number is +2 for Zn+2 ion
Neutral atom with 30 protons and 34 neutrons what is atomic number?
30 protons defines the atomic number. It matters not how many neutrons there are. The atomic number is 30, and the element is Zn (zinc).
How many elctron in zinc?
Zinc is a bluish metallic element with the symbol of Zn. Its atomic number 30. It also has 30 protons and electrons.
What is the chemical for the ion with 29 protons and 27 electrons?
It would end up answering with Cobalt = Co. Because the protons stay the same and add the protons and electrons together equaling 59. So (Co+2) would be the final answer.
How many protons electrons and neutrons are in the formula zinc and chlorine?
Zinc chloride has the chemical formula ZnCl2.The total number of protons is 64; the total number of electrons is also 64.The number of neutrons depends on the isotopes of Zn and Cl.
How many protons and electrons are in the element Zinc2 plus?
ZnCl2 is not a element. It is an compound. however Zn contains 30 protons.
An atom has 29 electrons and protons and 35 neutrons what is the mass number?
30 The atomic number is the number of protons
What is the most common isotope of uranium?
The most common isotope of zinc is the one with mass number 64; the atomic number of zinc is 30, which means each zinc nucleus contains 30 protons, and the mass number is defined as the sum of the numbers of neutrons and protons. Therefore, the number of neutrons is (64 - 30) or 34.
Which will a copper II ion be replaced by?
Zn Ca
What is the charge of the Zn ion?
+2 is the charge of zinc
