First you have to look at the number of protons in the element because in a neutral element or atom the number of protons and the number of electrons are the same
If the atom is an ion (i.e has a charge/valency) you either take away or add the charge to the number of electrons
for example
oxygen has 8 protons and 8 electrons
say that it has a charge of (-2)
that means that there are 2 more electrons in this particular atom because the charge is negative (electrons have negative charges) and the valency is '2'
hence add 2 electrons the the existing 8 and you have 10 electrons (HOPE THIS DOESNT CONFUSE YOU)
The Element Neon has 10 protons and 10 electrons.
Electron configuration tells you how electrons are arranged in an atom's energy levels. It provides information on the number of electrons in each energy level and helps predict an element's chemical properties and reactivity. By understanding electron configuration, you can determine an element's potential to form bonds with other elements.
Oxygen is a non metal element. There are 8 electrons in a single atom.
If an element has gained electrons, it has been reduced. If an element has lost electrons, it has been oxidized. This can be determined by comparing the oxidation state of the element before and after the reaction.
Element X with 72 protons will have 72 electrons in a neutral state. The number of protons in an element is equal to the number of electrons in that element's neutral atom.
The number of electrons should balance the number of protons, which is denoted by the atomic number.
The atomic number = Number of protons = Number of electrons
Where do you live? Tell me how many electrons it has first. the number at the bottom of the element in bold black.
simply yes
How many protons/ electrons that element has and where it is on the periodic table.
Depending on how many valence electrons in the element has, The other element could take away a valence electron to make eight
How many valence (outer shell) electrons an element has.
