How many neutrons and electrons are in zinc-66?

well, the isotope number of the atom doesnt matter, as long is it doesnt decay, as it only specifies the number of neutrons which doesn't have a strong affect on the stable number of electrons. Typically, free atoms are stable when they have a netral net charge, Though, if excited with EM waves, the electrons will want to increase in energy, and eventually leave the atom.For any atom, the number of electrons is simply the atomic number, which for zinc is 30.though, when zinc is in close proximity to itself or other metals, it bonds metallically, and looses its electrons to have a full p orbital, meaning that the only number of electrons actuall in the atom is 18when in ionic bond it looses two electrons, and then only has 28 electrons


Lithium Ion has how many electrons and protons?

When you say Ion you have to specify whether its negative or positive and the number associated with it. For example: if its Li 3- it means it has 3 more electrons then regular Lithium (which has 3 electrons) that makes it 6 electrons and 3 protons (this nr doesnt change) for Li 3-. Obviously calculations vary depending on the type of ion.

How do you determine the number of protons in the nucleus?

The number of protons in an atom determines the chemical identity of that atom. (And only that, by the way.) We use the atomic number to state the exact number of protons in all atoms of a given element. Hydrogen has the atomic number 1 because every atom of hydrogen has exactly one proton. Also, every atom with exactly one proton is hydrogen. Helium is atomic number 2, and the same thing applies. All helium atoms have exactly 2 protons, and all atoms with exactly 2 protons are helium atoms. To determine the number of protons in a given atom, look at which element it is and find it on the periodic table or on a list of the elements. Then find its atomic number, which will be the exact number of protons in every atom of that element.


How many electons are in the element neon?

Neon has 10 protons, 10 neutrons and 10 electrons.


How many protons are in krypton-80?

Krypton is a noble gas. It's atomic number is 36.We also know that the atomic number of an element is equal to number of protons present in its nucleus.Therefore the number of protons in krypton is 36.Make one thing clear in your mind that there is no kryton-80 because it is a noble gas, therfore it doesnt have any isotope.

Having a nucleus is not a criterion for a living thing.


How does the size of the atomic radius in a nonmetal compare to size of its ionic radius?

I'm not positive but.... the ionic radius of a metallic atom is slammer than its atomic radius because metallic atoms want to loose electrons. The loss of electrons increases the pull of the nucleus, drawing the electrons closer and thereby making the ionic radius smaller than the atomic radius.

Why the nucleus doesnt have charge?

It has a charge on it. it has a positive charge on it.


What are the functions of protons neutrons and electrons?

Protons are positively charged particles and they determine what element the atom is. It doesnt matter how many elecrons or neutrons it has. If you have a number of protons and match it to the corresponding atomic number on the periodic table, you can classify it as that element.Neutrons mainly stabilize the atom and have the same atomic mass as protons. The heavier the atom is, the more neutrons are required to stabalise it. Hence, large atoms such as uranium are very unstable.Electrons allow the atoms to bond to each other and take part in chemical reactions. Chemestry is almost completely based around electron exchange.
