How many electrons are in a oxygen atom?
There are 8 electrons in a single neutral oxygen atom.The atomic number of oxygen is 8, because it has 8 protons in its nucleus. In an elemental, neutral, atom of oxygen the number of electrons will match the number of protons. There are 8 electrons in a neutral oxygen atom.Note that oxygen can become an ion under certain circumstances, and we need to specify the neutral atom to state how many electrons there are in oxygen.
How many electrons are contained in 35Cl?
The neutral atom has 14 electrons.
If a neutral atom contains 18 protons how many electrons does it contain?
18
How many total electron would a neutral potassium atom contain?
18 electrons
An atom has 15 protons and 18 neutrons How many electrons does it have?
If the atom is neutral, then it will have 15 electrons to balance the 15 protons.
How many electrons does a neutral atom of oxygen-18 have?
8
How many electrons will surround the nucleus of a neutral atom of the isotope 18 of oxygen?
Each isotope of oxygen (15 to 19) has the same number of protons (8), hence the neutral atoms have 8 electrons.
How many electrons surround the nucleus of a neutral atom of the isotope 180 of oxygen?
O-18 atom has 8 protons, 8 electrons and 10 neutrons.

18
An oxide ion formed from an oxygen -18 atom contains exactly how many protons neutrons and electrons?
The isotope oxygen-18 has the mass number of 18. The atomic number of oxygen is 8, so all of its atoms, regardless of isotope, have 8 protons. In a neutral oxygen atom the number of protons equals the number of electrons, so it has 8 electrons. The number of neutrons equals the mass number minus the atomic number, which for oxygen-18 is (18 - 8), so there are 10 neutrons.
How many electrons are in a neutral bromine atom?
There are 35 electrons in a neutral boron atom arranged in the order 2, 8, 18, 7.
How many subatomic particles are there in oxygen-18?
Oxygen-18 has 8 electrons and protons; the number of neutrons is 10.
How many total electron would a neutral potassium atom contain?
18 electrons
An atom has 15 protons and 18 neutrons How many electrons does it have?
If the atom is neutral, then it will have 15 electrons to balance the 15 protons.
If calcium is most happy with a charge of 2 how many electrons would it have?
The neutral atom of calcium has 20 electrons; the cation Ca2+ has 18 electrons.
