Cadmium (Cd) has an atomic number of 48, which means it has 48 protons and is neutral when it has an equal number of electrons. Therefore, a cadmium atom with 48 electrons would have a charge of 0 or be electrically neutral.
36 electrons
Cations are positively charged species and are formed when elements lose electrons.
The neutral atom of cadmium has 48 electrons.
