A neutral atom with 11 electrons would, by definition, have to have 11 protons. In this case, we are talking about Sodium.

A neutral atom contains 5 neutrons and 4 protons how many electrins does it contain?

Protons: 5 Neutrons: 7 Electrons: 5


A particle of matter contains of 6 protons 7 neutrons and 6 electrons This particle must be a A neutral carbon atom B neutral nitrogen atom C neutral oxygen atom D neutral potassium atom?

A particle containing 6 protons, 7 neutrons, and 6 electrons is a neutral carbon atom. The number of protons determines the element, so 6 protons corresponds to carbon on the periodic table. The number of neutrons is added to determine the isotope, and the number of electrons balances the charge to make it neutral.


What is the number of electrons and neutrons in fluorine?

In a neutral atom of fluorine, there are 9 electrons. The number of neutrons varies with an isotope's mass number.


What is the internal structure of an atom?

The atom is a basic unit of matter that consists of a dense central nucleus surrounded by a cloud of negatively charged electrons. The atomic nucleus contains a mix of positively charged protons and electrically neutral neutrons. The electrons of an atom are bound to the nucleus by the electromagnetic force


An atom is electrically neutral because?

An atom has no electrical charge because the negative charge of the electrons counteract the positive charge of the protons and the neutrons in the nucleus have a neutral charge. For example, Carbon has 6 electrons(-6 charge) and has 6 protons(+6 charge). Giving it an atomic weight of 12 and a charge of 0. The 6 neutrons do not change this charge, they keep it the same because they are neutral. (:

What is the charge of neutrons protrons electorns?

The charge of neutron is 0, as it is neutral. The charge of proton is 1.6x 10 to the power -19 coulomb. The charge of electron is -1.6x10 to the power -19 coulomb.


A neutral atom contains 5 neutrons and 4 protons. How many electrons does it contain?

A neutral atom contains the same number of electrons as protons. Therefore, an atom with 4 protons would also have 4 electrons to maintain its neutral charge.

There are similar number of neutrons and protons. It contains 29 neutrons and protons.


What are the charging of protons electrons and neutrons?

Protons have a positive charge, electrons have a negative charge, and neutrons are neutral and have no charge.


What property's do protons and electrons have that neutrons don't?

Protons and electrons are charged particles and neutrons have no charge because they are neutral.


What element 20 protrons 20 neutrons and 18 electrons?

The element with 20 protons, 20 neutrons, and 18 electrons is calcium. Calcium has an atomic number of 20, which tells us the number of protons in the nucleus. The number of protons and electrons should be equal for a neutral atom, therefore in this case the element is calcium.
