Neon is element number 10 on the Periodic Table, therefore is has 10 protons and in a neutral atom (not an ion) it also has 10 electrons
An atom of neon consists of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Neon has 10 protons, 10 neutrons, and 10 electrons. Protons are positively charged, electrons are negatively charged, and neutrons have no charge.
Magnesium will lose 2 electrons to have the same electron configuration as Neon. Neon has a full valence shell with 8 electrons, and Magnesium has 2 valence electrons. By losing 2 electrons, Magnesium can achieve a full valence shell and the same electron configuration as Neon.
It depends on which element are u looking upon..if its hydrogen then it has three isotopes which have a different number of neutrons..this variation in the number of neutrons in the atoms of same element invented the concept of isotope.
A neutral sodium atom must lose one electron to have the electron configuration of neon, which has a stable electron configuration with a full outer shell. Sodium typically forms a +1 cation by losing this one electron to achieve a stable configuration like neon.
A sodium ion is a sodium atom that has lost an electron, giving it a positive charge. Neon, on the other hand, is a noble gas with a complete outer electron shell, making it stable and unreactive. Sodium ions are typically involved in chemical reactions, while neon atoms are inert.
The protons and neutrons are packed together in the middle and the electrons have space to move, around them. logically their should be MORE neutrons and protons,but this depends on the size of the atom and how many atoms in the neon. info from SUSSEX UNIVERSITY.

This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.

Hydrogen is the smallest atom by mass. Helium, neon, fluorine and oxygen are smaller in size. Many calculations put the helium as the smallest atom. But a few other calculations put neon as the smallest atom!

The element hydrogen is the only element that lacks neutrons in its nucleus, consisting only of a single proton and an electron.
Hydrogen. This is because its atomic structure contains one proton, one neutron (or in some cases, no neutrons) and one electron, which are nearly massless particles, due to their size. This lack of subatomic particles results in little to no gravitational pull on it, causing it to float upwards much faster than other gases, such as neon or nitrogen.
It has 8 valence electrons.
