I have this question in my homework but mine has a minus sign after the 2 so if urs does to then it is negative but if it doesnt then it is positive. it has 12 electrons because oxygen has 6 protons + 8 protons (carbon) = 14 -2 = 12 electrons

What charge are protons neutrons and electrons if they are part of carbon?

Protons are always postive, neutrons are always neutral and electrons are always negative. Carbon has no charge because it has as many protons as it has electrons.


How many protons neutrons and electrons in carbon 12?

Because it is carbon, it automatically has 6 protons (remembering that it is the number of protons that becomes the basis for naming atoms). However, it's a little unclear based on the question as to what the number of electrons is in the system since no charge is given (remember: Charge No. = No. of protons - No. of Electrons). Assume a neutral atom, however, and you would have 6 electrons.


What are the charging of protons electrons and neutrons?

Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons are neutral and have no charge.

What charge is any atom?

the charge depends on the number of protons or electrons, if more electrons are there than protons there is a -1 charge, if there are more protons then electrons it is a +1 charge. Called Ions

What is the number of protons electrons and neutrons of an anion of carbon with a -3 charge?

A neutral carbon atom always contains 6 protons and 6 electrons. The number of neutrons can vary, but in the most common isotope, this number is also 6. Each electron carries an electrical charge of -1. Therefore, an ions of this isotope of carbon with a -3 charge contains 9 electrons, and the numbers of protons and neutrons remain the same as in the neutral atom.


How do two isotopes of an element similar?

Every element has a set number of protons. Always. Electrons are determined by the charge on the atom. If it is positive, it has fewer electrons than protons; if it is negative, it has more electrons than protons. Isotopes are atoms with different numbers of neutrons. So, neutral carbon-12 has 6 protons, 6 electrons, and 12 neutrons. Likewise, neutral carbon-14 has 6 protons, 6 electrons, and 14 neutrons. Carbon-12 and carbon-14 are isotopes


What is the Definition of neutrons protons and electrons?

Whats the difference between electrons and protons?
