Mercury-202 has how many neutrons in its nucleus?

Mercury has the atomic number 80 so has 80 protons. Work out the neutrons by taking the protons away from the total mass. Other isotopes of mercury are mercury-196, 197, 198, 201, 202 and 204. Each will have a different number of neutrons, giving it a different mass, bat always the same number of protons. That means always the same number of electrons too, so therefore the same chemical behaviour.

Number of electrons and protons in a nucleus?

The number of protons in a nucleus depends on which element it is. ( The number of protons is the decider as to which element it is. ) The number of electrons in an atom is the same as the number of protons in the nucleus, but none of the electrons are in the nucleus. Rather, they orbit around the nucleus like planets round a star.
