Br- has 36 electrons.
Bromide: Group 17, Period IV:
(K,L,M,N): 2, 8, 18, 7+1 (1 extra for Br-) = total 35+1= 36 electrons
A bromine atom with 36 electrons is neutral, as the number of protons (which is equal to the atomic number, 35 for bromine) is balanced by the number of electrons. The charge on a neutral bromine atom is 0.
An ion of bromine typically has 36 electrons since bromine has 35 electrons in its neutral state, but the charge of the ion will determine the exact number.
A bromine atom with a mass number of 79 loses one electron to become a bromine ion with a negative 1 charge. This occurs when the atom gains an extra electron, giving it a full outer electron shell of 8 electrons, thus forming the Br- ion.
A Br1- ion has 36 electrons. Bromine (Br) normally has 35 electrons (according to its atomic number of 35), but since the ion has a negative charge of -1, it gains one extra electron, totaling 36 electrons.
Protons have positive charge and electrons negative

No. The number of anything that can be counted - including electrons - cannot be negative.

No, the overall charge of an atom is negative only if the number of electrons is greater than the number of protons. An atom becomes negatively charged when it gains extra electrons, causing an imbalance in the positive charge of the protons and the negative charge of the electrons.
Protons (+1 charge) and electrons (-1 charge) are the subatomic particles that determine the charge of an atom. Protons carry a positive charge, while electrons carry a negative charge. The number of protons in an atom determines its overall positive charge, while the number of electrons determines its overall negative charge.
The overall charge of an element is determined by the number of protons in the nucleus. Protons have a positive charge, while electrons have a negative charge. In a neutral atom, the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons, resulting in no overall charge.
Br has an atomic number of 35 giving it 35 protons. Since it has a charge of 1- it will have 36 electrons to form a octet.Br- will have 35 protons and 36 electrons. The negative charge indicates it gained an electron.
Protons have positive charge and electrons negative
An atom with an equal number of electrons and protons has no net electrical charge, as the number of positive (proton) and negative (electron) charges are balanced.
No, bromine forms an ion with a charge of -1. An ion isoelectronic with krypton would have the same number of electrons as krypton, which is 36 electrons.
