Then it would not be an atom, but a non-existing Carbon anion (-1, negatively charged)
An atom of carbon with an atomic number of 6 will have 6 electrons. The notation 12C1- indicates the isotope carbon-12 with a single negative charge, so the neutral atom would have 6 electrons while the negatively charged ion would have gained an extra electron giving it a total of 7 electrons. The correct answer is C, 7 electrons.
carbon
The natural isotope of carbon 13C (abundance 1,1 %) has 6 protons, 6 electrons and 7 neutrons.
CI4, or carbon tetraiodide, contains one carbon atom and four iodine atoms. Carbon has 4 valence electrons, while each iodine atom has 7 valence electrons. Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in CI4 is 4 (from carbon) + 4 × 7 (from iodine) = 4 + 28 = 32 valence electrons.
Eight bonding electrons are there. 4 from one carbon and 1 each from the four chlorine atoms.
a. carbon - 4 b. iodine - 12 c. calcium - 2 d. gallium - 3
1molecule of C2H6 contains 2 carbon atoms
The order is: Iodine (7 valence electrons) Carbon (4 valence electrons) Calcium (2 valence electrons) Sodium (1 valence electron)
Carbon-13 has 6 protons and 7 neutrons, making a total of 13 particles in its nucleus. Since atoms are electrically neutral, it also has 6 electrons to balance the charge of the 6 protons.
This is the element Carbon. Carbon has three isotopes, of which carbon -12 is the most common. It is composed of : - C-12 ; 6 protons, 6 neutrons, ( 6+6 = 12) and 6 electrons. The other isotopes of carbon are# C-13 ; 6 protons, 7 neutrons, ( 6+7=13) and 6 electrons C-14 ; 6 protons, 8 neutrons, (6+8=14) and 6 electrons.
Carbon (C) has 4 valence electrons, hydrogen (H) has 1, fluorine (F) has 7, and chlorine (Cl) has 7. Therefore, CHF2Cl has 24 valence electrons in total.
Carbon tetrabromide (CBr4) contains a total of 36 electrons. Each carbon atom contributes 4 electrons, while each bromine atom contributes 7 electrons. There are 4 bromine atoms in CBr4, totaling 28 electrons, along with the 8 electrons contributed by the 2 carbon atoms.
