An element's atomic number gives its number of protons. Lutetium's atomic number is 71. Thus, it has 71 protons.
beryllium has 4 protons. helium has 2 protons
There are 19 protons in the potassium atom.
beryllium has 4 protons and helium has 2 protons
there are 66 protons & 97 neutrons
Barium has 56 protons.
The coast for Lutetium is south
To find electrons we must first find the atomic number of lutetium, which can be found below the lutetium symbol.Lutetium has an atomic number of 174.97. Round to 175.Atomic number is equal to amount of protons.And in a neutral atom amount of protons is equal to the amount electrons.Lutetium has 175 electrons.Thanks to Mr. Jernigan for teaching me in Chemistry!!

Lutetium is used in PET scanners
Lutetium bromide
Lutetium (Lu) has no unpaired electrons because it is a transition metal and its electron configuration ends in a fully-filled d subshell.
Lutetium has the oxidation state +3.
For most practical purposes, lutetium can be regarded as stable, though it is slightly radioactive. 97.41% of lutetium found in nature is stable, and 2.59% is of an isotope with a half life of 37,800,000,000 years. Like all other elements, lutetium has synthetic radioactive isotopes.
Lutetium costs 42 USD for a 5 gram ingot.
If you think to the electron configuration of lutetium this is: [Xe]4f14.5d1.6s2.
Lutetium is a solid at room temperature. It is a rare earth metal that has a silver-white color and is a relatively dense and stable element.
There are 2 valence electrons in lutetium. It belongs to group 3 of the periodic table, so it has 2 electrons in its outermost shell.
Lutetium is classified under Group 3, an element under Lanthanides.
