How many neutrons are in the nucleus of a Chlorine atom?
18.5 neutrons Neutrons can not be a fraction. Must be a whole number. Chlorine has 18 neutrons
How many neutrons are in the atom chlorine?
Every chlorine atom has 17 protons; 17 is the atomic number of chlorine. However, chlorine has two isotopes that are stable against radioactive decay. These have mass numbers of 35 and 37, which have 18 and 20 neutrons respectively.
What charge is chlorine?
The chlorine ion is in group 7 so it has a charge of -1.
What is the difference between chlorine 35 and chlorine 37?
The electron structure of the two isotopes is the same. They differ in the number of neutrons in the nucleus- 37Cl has two more than 35Cl
What is chlorine made up of?
Chlorine is an element; it's not "made out of" anything except chlorine atoms. Chlorine atoms are, like all atoms, made of electrons, protons, and neutrons, and the protons and neutrons are made of quarks, specifically up and down quarks (2 up, 1 down for protons; 1 up, 2 down for neutrons).
Whats the difference between chlorine 35 and chlorine 37?
Chlorine-37 has more neutrons in it than Chlorine 35
What is the nuclear charge of chlorine with 22 nuetrons'?
Chlorine has 17 protons, so the nuclear charge is +17 esu. The number of neutrons does not affect the nuclear charge (since neutrons have a neutral charge).
If the chlorine nucleus had twenty neutrons would the charge in the nucleus be greater less or the same?
The neutron has no charge so changing the number of neutrons in the nucleus would not change the charge of the nucleus.
How many neutrons does a chlorine atom have in its nucleus in words?
The number of neutrons is different for each isotope. Chlorine-35 has eighteen neutrons. Chlorine-36 has nineteen neutrons. Chlorine-37 has twenty neutrons. ....... etc.
How does the combination of electrons protons and neutrons result in the neutral charge of an atom?
wow kid ur dumb if they're are 6 protons 6 neutrons and 6 eletctrons, whats the net charge? 0 the amount of neutrons doesnt really matter...
A chlorine atom with 18 neutrons is what element?
A chlorine atoms is always a molecule of chlorine, irrespective of the number of neutrons it may have.
How many neutrons are in the nucleus of a Chlorine atom?
18.5 neutrons Neutrons can not be a fraction. Must be a whole number. Chlorine has 18 neutrons
What is the charge of each of the neutrons?
Neutrons do not have a charge.
What charge are neutrons?
neutrons have no charge at all, ther are neutral
If the atomic mass of chlorine is 35 how many neutrons does it have?
The number of neutrons in chlorine is 18 (no of neutrons=atomic mass-no of protons=35-17=18)
Which ion has 17 protons 18 neutrons 18 electrons?
A chloride ion (of the isotope 35Cl) with a charge of -1. The 17 protons tell you its chlorine and since there is one more electron than proton it has a charge.
Chlorine 35 and chlorine 37 have a different number of what?
Neutrons.
