12C- the singly charged anion of carbon 12 has 7 electrons. Hopefully the question was 126C- - how many electrons- as at least in that you you are told the atomic number (6) as well as the mass number (12) as you need the atomic number to tell you how many electrons are in the neutral atom.

How many electrons are shown in the electron dot structure of carbon?

The electron-dot representation of a carbon atom show only four dots because the dots represent only the valence electrons (the ones placed in the outermost shell). The carbon atom has four electrons in it's outermost shell. !


How many electrons are found in 12c?

A carbon atom with the symbol 12C has 6 electrons since the atomic number of carbon is 6, indicating the number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom are the same.

The atomic number of carbon is 6 How many electrons does an atom of carbon have if it is represented by the symbol as 12C1- A 5 electrons B 6 electrons C 7 electrons D 11 electrons?

An atom of carbon with an atomic number of 6 will have 6 electrons. The notation 12C1- indicates the isotope carbon-12 with a single negative charge, so the neutral atom would have 6 electrons while the negatively charged ion would have gained an extra electron giving it a total of 7 electrons. The correct answer is C, 7 electrons.

What parts of an atom are shown in its Lewis symbol?

The valence electrons are represented in the Lewis symbol of an atom. These are the electrons in the outermost energy level of the atom and are involved in bonding with other atoms. The nucleus and inner electron shells are not shown in the Lewis symbol.


What is the Lewis theory chemical formula for Al and N?

The compound containing aluminum and nitrogen is called aluminum nitride and has the formula AlN. The aluminum atom loses its three valence electrons, and the nitrogen atom will gain the three valence electrons from the aluminum atom, and add them to its valence electrons, forming an octet.
