What is the number of protons neutron and electrons if nitrogen is 20?

Nitrogen always has 7 protons, otherwise it is not Nitrogen. Nitrogen 20 means that there are 20 protons. Unless it has an ionic bond, then there are also 7 electrons. If it is an ion, then there are 10 electrons.


Nitrogen atoms have 7 protons how many electrons are in an ion with a charge of plus 5?

A nitrogen atom has 7 protons and 7 electrons as it is electrically neutral. (An atom always has same number of protons and electrons)


How many protons are in an oxide ion?

There are 8 protons and 10 electrons in an oxide ion.


How many electrons in a nitrogen ion?

The atomic number of nitrogen is 7. That means that nitrogen has 7 protons per atom, each one having a +1 charge. Assuming that the atom of nitrogen is electrically neutral, there must also be 7 electrons, each of them having a -1 charge, in order for the total charge of the atom to be 0.


What is 7 protons 6 electrons and 6 neutrons?

The protons have a positive charge and the electrons have a negative charge, so it would be 7 + -5, so the charge is +2.


What ion has 7 protons and 10 electrons?

The Nitrogen 3- ion. Its atomic, or 'proton' number, is 7 and remember: in a neutral atom the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. Therefore adding 3 electrons to Nitrogen's outer shell (which allows the atom to fulfil the octet rule of having 8 valence electrons) creates an ion where there are 10 electrons and only 7 protons. The ion has a 3- charge as the balance between positive protons and negative electrons has been disrupted.


How many protons and electrons are there in a silver ion?

47 protons and 46 electrons.


The net charge on a sulfur (S) ion is 2-. The ion has how many protons and how many electrons?

The ion S(2-) has 16 protons and 18 electrons.


How many protons and electrons in ion Br?

Is An atom of Nitrogen with 7 protons 7 neutrons and 8 electrons an ion isotope or average atom?

It would be an ion.


How do you tell if an ion is positive or negative from a diagram?

By seeing how many protons to electrons there are. More protons, the Ion is positive. More electrons, the Ion is negative.
