How many protons and neutrons in Cl-37?

Answer 1

The number of protons in Chlorine is relative to its atomic number of 17. The amount of protons will not change, or will become a different element. The 37 refers to the amount of nucleons in the element. The total nucleons is calculated by adding the amount of protons and neutrons, so if we know there are 17 protons, 37-17= 20 neutrons. There are 17 protons and 20 neutrons in Cl-37.

Answer 2

37Cl: stable isotope with 17 protons (because the atomic number of chlorine is 17) and 20 neutrons.

Answer 3

Chlorine (Cl) has atomic number 17, thus it contains 17 proton. If the Atomic Mass is 37, then the number of neutrons is 37 - 17 = 20 neutrons.

Answer 4

The atomic nucleus of chlorine-37 has 17 protons and 20 neutrons.

Answer 5

Chlorine-37 has 17 protons and 20 neutrons.

Answer 6

20 nutrons
