How many protons electrons and neutrons in a sulfide ion?

Answer 1

Sulpher atom has an atomic no. of 16 and a mass no. of 32

neutrons = mass no. - atomic no.

= 32 - 16

= 16

when an atom becomes an ion only theelectron no. changes while the proton and neutron no. stays the same.

the neutron no. changes in isotopes only!!!

Answer 2

It depends on the isotope.
S-32, S-33 and S-34 has 16, 17 and 18 neutrons respectively.

Sulfur has 16 neutrons.

Answer 3

S2- There are 16 protons, 16 neutrons and 18 electrons in a sulfide ion.
