How many neutrons and protons does hydrochloric acid have?

Answer 1

Hydrochloric acid, with the chemical formula HCl, consists of one hydrogen atom and one chlorine atom. Hydrogen typically has one proton and zero neutrons, while chlorine typically has 17 protons and 18 neutrons. Therefore, hydrochloric acid has one proton and zero neutrons from hydrogen, and 17 protons and 18 neutrons from chlorine, totaling 18 protons and 18 neutrons.

Answer 2

Hydrochloric acid consists of one Hydrogen and one Chlorine atom - HCL. Hydrogen has only one proton, Chlorine has 17 Protons, 18 neutrons so HCL has 1 + 17 = 18 protons, 0 + 18 neutrons = 18 neutrons, HCL has 18 protons and 18 neutrons.

Answer 3

Hydrochloric acid, represented as HCl, does not have any neutrons because it consists of only one proton and one electron. The number of protons in the nucleus is equal to the atomic number, which is 1 for hydrogen and 17 for chlorine.
