9. The proton count remains the same; ionization is merely an electron dependent process. An F- ion has 10 electrons in its cloud.

In a neutral atom the number of electrons equals the number of what?
The number of electrons should equal the number of protons, otherwise you have an ion.
An ion that has three more protons in the nucleus than there are electrons outside the nucleus will have a charge of?
An ion that has three more protons in the nucleus than there are electrons outside the nucleus will have a charge of +3.
Which subatomic particles are found in a 32P-3 ion?
protons and neutrons are found in the nucleus of all atoms. Phosphorus always has a total of 15 protons so if it is 32P then the number of neutrons must be 17because 32 is the total mass of the atom.
What is the rule for determining the mass number of an atom or ion?
The mass number is the sum of number of protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus.
How many protons and neutrons does sulfur has of the net charge is -2?
S2- ion has 16 protons in the nucleus and 18 electrons around the nucleus. The number of neutrons in the nucleus depends on the isotopic mass of the Sulphur ion because there are over 20 known Sulphur isotopes, which are the same element with different number of neutrons.
Difference between Na and Na plus?
Na+ will be a sodium atom that has lost an electron. Normally in atoms the amount of protons and electrons are equal, when you see a plus or minus charge on an atom its due to the loss or gain of electrons.
How many protons nucleus have?
It depends on what atom it is, the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom or ion defines what type of atom it is.
The atomic number of an atom indicates the number of?
The atomic number is the number of protons in the atom. In the case of a neutral atom (as opposed to an ion), the atomic number is also equal to the total number of electrons.

What is total charge of an atom?
Short Answer:The total charge of an atom is the number of protons in the nucleus, minus the number of electrons around the nucleus. Normally, atoms have as many protons as electrons and the atom is neutral, otherwise, it is a negative ion with a charge of -1, -2, etc if it has extra electrons or +1, +2 etc if it is missing electrons and is a positive ion.Explanation:Atoms have a positively charged nucleus and a collection of negatively charged electrons around the nucleus. Because each proton in the nucleus has a positive charge of exactly the same size as the negative charge of an electron, when the normal atom has as many electrons as protons, the total charge of the atom is zero. It is a neutral atom.If there is one more electron than than the number of protons, there is a net negative charge of -1. If the atom is missing an electron, the total charge is +1.If an atom has one or more extra electrons, we say it is a negative ion and the total charge of the ion is -1 or -2 or "-" the number of extra electrons.If an atom is one or more electrons, we say it is a positive ion and the total charge of the ion is +1 or +2 or "+" the number of missing electrons, i.e. the excess number of protons.Total Charge = (number of protons) - (number of electrons).

The mass number is the sum of number of protons and neutrons in the atomic nucleus.
What is ion and molecule?
a molecule is more than one atom attached together, an ion is an atom/molecule where the number of electrons is not equal to the number of protons in the nucleus
If the number of protons in the nucleus is less than the number of neutrons in the neuleus what is the ion formed?
Actually, neutrons (because they have a neutral charge) are not involved in making an atom or molecule an ion -- only protons and electrons do that. So, the number of protons compared to the number of neutrons doesn't matter.
How many protons and neutrons does sulfur has of the net charge is -2?
S2- ion has 16 protons in the nucleus and 18 electrons around the nucleus. The number of neutrons in the nucleus depends on the isotopic mass of the Sulphur ion because there are over 20 known Sulphur isotopes, which are the same element with different number of neutrons.
