Cl-1 has 17 protons and 18 electrons
Magnesium is atomic number 12. Thus, it has 12 protons and 12 electrons in the neutral state. If it becomes an ion, it loses 2 electrons to become Mg^2+. The Mg^2+ ion has 12 protons and 10 electrons.
3 protons, 2 electrons
A+
the answer is 12 proteins and 10 electrons
the number of proton=the number of electron= 12
For neutral atoms, the electron number is always the same as the proton number.For ions, charged atoms, the proton number is different than the electron number by the charge (e.g. a hydrogen ion, H(+1) has 1 proton and 0 electrons, 1 more proton than electrons).
The charge on a magnesium ion is +2. This indicates that the two valence electrons present in a magnesium atom have been donated to form one or two anions of some other element.
3! Electron number always equals the Proton number!
has a charge which can be positive (excess protons) or negative (excess electrons). ... becomes an ion - positive ion if deficient in electrons, negative with an excess of electrons.
the number of proton=the number of electron= 12
An ion. If electrons are in excess over proton then it is negative ion. And if less then positive ion
Singl atom has 12 electrons. Oxidation number of it is +2.
The sodium ion will be larger. Because magnesium has one more proton than sodium, its nuclei pull harder on the electrons, reducing the ion's radius. This means that the magnesium ion is smaller.
The charge on a magnesium ion with 10 electrons (Mg2+) is +2.
The atomic number of magnesium is 12. The cation loses two electrons for 10.
For neutral atoms, the electron number is always the same as the proton number.For ions, charged atoms, the proton number is different than the electron number by the charge (e.g. a hydrogen ion, H(+1) has 1 proton and 0 electrons, 1 more proton than electrons).
The charge on a magnesium ion is +2. This indicates that the two valence electrons present in a magnesium atom have been donated to form one or two anions of some other element.

The Magnesium atom will lose 2 of its electrons to become a Magnesium ion with 10 electrons. (Mg2+) How many electrons does a magnesium ion have? How many electrons does a fluoride ion have? How many electrons does a fluoride ion have?
A magnesium ion will be smaller because there will be a greater Zeff on the electrons in the magnesium ion due to a greater number of protons in the nucleus.
