Element
A carbon atom typically has 6 protons.
For any Carbon atom, irrespective of its isotopic mass , there are 6(six) protons.
The pair below that describes isotopes of the same element is B, an atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons-an atom with 6 protons. It is not A, an atom with 6 protons and 8 neutrons- an atom with 8 protons and 6 neutrons. Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons and electrons, which is the atomic number of the element.
In all there are 6 electrons, but the electrons are distributed over 2 shells. In the first shell, there are 2 electrons, and in the second there are 4 electrons. Note that this applies to the neutral atom of carbon.
For the isotope carbon-12: 6 protons, 6 neutrons, 6 electrons
Each carbon atom (atom number 6) has 6 protons (in nucleus) and 6 electrons (orbited around), the number of neutrons (also in nucleus) may vary from 6 or (less common) 7 or (rarely) 8.
An atom of carbon has 6 protons.
Protons are found in the nucleus of every atom. The number of protons determines what element it is; for example, atoms with 6 protons are carbon atoms, while an atom with 8 protons is an oxygen atom.
A carbon atom typically has 6 protons.
6 protons, 6 electrons and 6 protons in carbon-12 atom
An atom of chlorine has 17 protons, while an atom of sodium has 11 protons. Therefore, an atom of chlorine has 6 more protons than an atom of sodium.
For any Carbon atom, irrespective of its isotopic mass , there are 6(six) protons.
it must contain 6 protons, 6 electons and 6 neutrons.
Carbon IS an atom. I presume you mean how many electrons there are. There are 6 electrons, 6 protons and 6 neutrons in every un-bonded Carbon atom.
The pair below that describes isotopes of the same element is B, an atom with 6 protons and 6 neutrons-an atom with 6 protons. It is not A, an atom with 6 protons and 8 neutrons- an atom with 8 protons and 6 neutrons. Isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons and electrons, which is the atomic number of the element.
There are 6 protons in a neutral atom of Carbon 13
An atom's atomic number gives us its number of protons. Carbon's atomic number is 6. Thus, it has 6 protons.
