Lithium has two isotopes. (An isotope is the name given to the different "flavors" of a given element that have different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei.) Here's the list: 6Li - 3 neutrons, and a stable isotope - represents 7.5% of natural Li 7Li - 4 neutrons, and a stable isotope - represents 92.5% of natural Li A link is provided.

Lithium-6 undergoes beta decay. What does lithium-6 decay into?
If it absorbs one neutron it becomes Stable isotope of Lithium but question is how ?
How many protons are in a lithium nucleus?
The atomic number of lithium is 3. Therefor there are 3 protons and neutron in the nucleus of lithium. Lithium also has 4 neutrons. atomic # = protons and neutrons neutrons = rounded atomic mass - atomic number Sources- 7th grade Acc. Science

How many neutrons are there in the nucleus of an atom of lithium if the atomic number is 7?
The amount of neutrons can change among elements atoms of the same type element. These are called isotopes. Lithium actually has an atomic number of 3. An atomic number means how many protons it has. The problem most likely means that it has an atomic mass of 7. If that is true, it becomes easy. Atomic mass means the total weight of the element. A proton and a neutron each weigh '1.' All you have to do is look and see that lithium has an atomic number of '3' which means that it has 3 protons. You subtract that from the mass to get an answer of 4. This means that lithium in this example has 4 neutrons.Electrons aren't counted in the mass of the element because they weigh so little. That is the same reason why a neutron (which is technically a proton and an electron together) has the same weight as a regular proton.
How many valence electrons are in Lithium?
One. Lithium is a group1 element
How many neutron are there in the lithium ion that has 3 protons?

What is the element with the Neutron number 44.96?
You can't have 0.946 of a neutron. You've either got a whole neutron or you don't. So the answer is "there is no element with a neutron number of 3.946".The average number of neutrons in lithium is close to that. Somewhere between about 7.5% and 3.75% of lithium atoms have 3 neutrons; the rest have 4. That nicely brackets an average of 3.946 (which would correspond to 5.4% 6Li)
What is the difference between lithium -6 and lithium -7?
one neutron in the nucleus.
How many neutron are there in the lithium ion?
The lithium ion is essentially the same as the lithium atom, except it has lost 1 electrons. The number of protons and neutrons remain the same. Thus, the lithium ion, Li+ has 3 neutrons, just like the lithium atom.
How many proton's neutron's and electron's does lithium possess?
3 protons, 3 electrons and 4 neutrons
Lithium-6 undergoes beta decay. What does lithium-6 decay into?
If it absorbs one neutron it becomes Stable isotope of Lithium but question is how ?
Is lithium-8 radioactive?
Yes, it is. It has a high neutron-to-proton ratio.
What type of decay involve neutron emission?
Neutron emission is typically related to fission, but they can also be released by themselves in certain cases where there is a excess of neutrons, such as beryllium-13 and lithium-10.

Bombarding a lithium-6 atom with a neutron produces helium-4 and another particle.what is that particle?
if you bombard a lithium 6 atom with a neutron, then it will form a helium 4 or alpha decay particle and a hydrogen 3 atom, but i dont see that happening, i would think you would need a bigger atom for it to go through radioactive decay, but im just giving my opinion, it could happen just as surely as i think it doesnt. but if alpha decay was to happen to a lithium 6 atom from neutron bombardment, you would get a helium 4 atom and a hydrogen 3 atom.
How many netrons does lithium have?
Lithium has 4 neutrons.
