There are two main isotopes of chlorine. Every chlorine atom has 17 electrons where there are 18 and 20 neutrons in chlorine-35 and chlorine-37 respectively.

How many electrons neutrons and protons are in cluorine?

Chlorine exist as two isotopes(same number of electrons and protons but different number of neutrons), although there are traces of one more but we're not to sure. ~70% of Chlorine is Chlorine-35 which contains 17 electrons and 18 neutrons ~30% of Chlorine is Chlorine-37 which contains 17 electrons and 20 neutrons and ≤1% of Chlorine-36........


May you see a picture of how many protons neutrons and electrons in chlorine?

No. Sorry.


How many protons neutrons and electrons are in chlorine 37?

Cl-37 : 17 protons , 20 neutrons , 17 electrons Compare with Cl-35 ; 17 protons , 18 neutrons, 17 electrons. These are two different and common isotopes of chlorine. Remember 'Different isotopes have a different number of neutrons'. Chemically they react the same.


How many protons neutrons and electrons are in one most common isotope of chlorine?

Chlorine has the atomic number of 17. To keep it neutral then, it must have 17 protons and 17 electrons. Chlorine's most common isotope is 35Cl. That means it has 35 - 17 = 18 neutrons.


How many protons neutrons and electrons are in cl?

Cl-35 isotope has 18 neutrons Cl-37 isotope has 20 neutrons


How many electrons does a chlorine atom have if it has 17 protons and 18 neutrons?

17 electrons. The number of protons and electrons is always the same.


How many protons nuetrons and electrons are in chlorine?

The atom had:17 Protons18 Neutrons and17 Electrons(double-checked)


How many electrons are in chlorine?

'17' Chlorine Atomic No, is 17. This means it is in position No. 17 in Periodic Table. It has 17 protons It has 17 electrons. NB Do NOT confuse with Atomic Mass of Chlorine. Chlorine has two common isotopes. One isotope has an atomic mass of 35 . That is 17 protons and 18 neutrons). The other isotope has an atomic mass of 37. That is 17 protons and 20 neutrons). For both isotopes the number of protons and electrons remains the same. An isotope is a different number of neutrons.


How many subatomic particles does chlorine have?

Chlorine has 18 subatomic particles, which consist of 17 protons, 18 neutrons, and 17 electrons.


How many protons neutrons electrons does a chlorine molecule?

Chlorine has an atomic number of 17. Thus, neutral chlorine will have 17 protons and 17 electrons. Chlorine's most common isotope is 35Cl, meaning it has 35 - 17 = 18 neutrons. *****************************2nd Opinion************* Since the question was about a chlorine molecule, shouldn't the answer be about Cl2? 34 p and 36 n


Does Cl 37 have 20 protons 20 electrons and 20 neutrons?

No, an atom of chlorine with 20 protons would not be chlorine-37. Chlorine-37 has 17 protons and 20 neutrons, totaling 37 particles in its nucleus. The number of electrons in a neutral chlorine-37 atom would be 17, not 20.
