An element's atomic number indicates the number of protons it has in the nucleus. In this case, since polonium's atomic number is 84, it has 84 protons.
In a neutral atom, the number of protons is the same as electrons. This is because the positive charge of the protons in the nucleus must be balanced with by the negative charge of the electrons. Therefore, in this case, because polonium has 84 protons, it has 84 electrons.

How many protons neutrons and electrons are in polonium?
Polonium has 84 protons and electrons; the number of neutrons is different for each isotope: Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - Atomic number of polonium (84)
How many neutrons and protons in polonium 209?
84 protons, 84 electrons and 136 neutrons.
How do you determine the number of protons electrons and neutrons present in an element by identifying its atomic and mass numbers from the periodic table?
Atomic number means number of protons present in an atom. Atomic number= number of protons. mass number = number of neutrons+ number of protons. So if you subtract the number of protons you get neutrons and if you subtract neutrons you get protons. mass number - protons= neutrons Mass number - neutrons = protons.
What gives an element it's atomic number?
Atomic number is the number of protons (i.e. equal to the number of electrons) of an atom.
What do you notice about the atomic number and the total number of electrons in an atom of that element?
The atomic number tells you the number of protons that an element has. An electrically neutral atom necessarily has the same number of electrons as it has protons.
Polonium has an atomic number of 84 how many protons and electrons does have?
Polonium has 84 protons and electrons.
How many protons neutrons and electrons are in polonium?
Polonium has 84 protons and electrons; the number of neutrons is different for each isotope: Number of neutrons = Atomic mass of an isotope - Atomic number of polonium (84)
How many neutrons and protons in polonium 209?
84 protons, 84 electrons and 136 neutrons.
Explain how polonium -209 and polonium -211 are similar?
209Po and 211Po are isotopes of polonium. 209Po and 211Po have the same number of protons and electrons, also the same atomic number; the number of protons is of course different. The two isotopes are radioactive.
What can be determined by looking at the atomic number of an element?
the number of protons in an atom and the number of electrons in an atom
How many protons are in polonlum?
84 protons in polonium, as its atomic number is 84
How can the number of proton neutron and electron be calculated to get atomic number and atomic mass?
atomic number is the amount of protons, equal to the atomic number, the electrons, minus the mass number atomic number is the amount of protons, equal to the atomic number, the electrons, minus the mass number atomic number is the amount of protons, equal to the atomic number, the electrons, minus the mass number
What are the number of protons neutrons and electrons in an element?
Number of protons = Number of electrons = Atomic number Number of neutrons = Atomic number - Number of protons
The atomic number of an element is what?
The atomic number of an element is how many protons and electrons (you must have the same amount of protons as electrons) an element has in it's nucleus. The Atomic number= number of protons= number of electrons.
If an f an atom has 36 electrons and 48 neutrons, then what is the atomic number?
Atomic number= 36 atomic number= no. of electrons
The... Is equal to the number of protons in an atom?
Electrons or atomic number. The atomic number is the number of protons as well as the principle quantum number.
How many electrons are in the nucleus of the atom of polominium?
Polonium's atomic number is 84. That means it has 84 protons and 84 electrons. However, none of these electrons are found in the nucleus, but rather outside of it in what is called the electron cloud.
