6 electrons. Neutrons have no charge, and protons have a positive charge, at an equal but opposite charge of an electron (think of it like protons are +1, electrons are -1). You need the exact same number of electrons as protons in order to have a neutral atom.


Does a negative ion have more protons or electrons?

Protons are positively charged. Neutrons are neutrally charged. Electrons are negatively charged.

However we can say it will definitely have more protons than electrons.
