How many more neutrons does thorium-230have than protons how many electrons does thorium-230 have?

The atomic number of thorium is 90. So there are 90 protons and 90 electrons. In Th-230 isotope there are 140 neutrons (230 - 90 = 140) So there are 50 more neutrons than the number of protons.


How many electrons does thorium230 have?

Thorium has 90 protons. So for a neutral atom, there has to be 90 electrons. 230 is the total number of nucleons. ie 90 protons and 140 neutrons.
