NO! No atom of one element ever has the same atomic number as an atom of a different element, because atomic number is the property that characterizes an element and distinguishes it from all other elements.

Does a water molecule have more protons than electrons?

No, a water molecule contains the same number of protons and electrons. In a water molecule (H2O), there are 10 protons (2 from each hydrogen and 8 from oxygen) and 10 electrons (2 from each hydrogen and 8 from oxygen).


Do oxygen and bromine have the same number of valence electrons?

no the do not bromine has 4 and oxygen has 2


How many electrons do oxygen atoms have?

The electrons in an element is the same as the protons and the atomic number. 8


What is isoelectronic with oxygen?

Nitrogen is isoelectronic with oxygen, as they both have the same number of electrons, which is 8.


Why are electrons number the same as neutrons number?

They are NOT. The number of electrons and the number of neutrons are not linked at all - for instance, an atom of Hydrogen has one proton and one electron and NO neutrons.


Do oxygen and hydrogen represent the same compound?

No. Hydrogen and oxygen are elements, not compounds. They are not the same.


Where would you most likely find shared electrons in a water molecule?

Shared electrons in a water molecule are most likely found in the covalent bonds between the oxygen and hydrogen atoms. In water, the oxygen atom shares electrons with the hydrogen atoms to form two polar covalent bonds.


Does hydrogen peroxide have a neutral charge?

Hydrogen peroxide has a neutral charge overall because it has the same number of protons and electrons. However, it contains polar covalent bonds due to the differences in electronegativity between hydrogen and oxygen atoms.


How many electrons are in a oxygen atom?

There are 8 electrons in a single neutral oxygen atom.The atomic number of oxygen is 8, because it has 8 protons in its nucleus. In an elemental, neutral, atom of oxygen the number of electrons will match the number of protons. There are 8 electrons in a neutral oxygen atom.Note that oxygen can become an ion under certain circumstances, and we need to specify the neutral atom to state how many electrons there are in oxygen.


Neutral atoms of argon atomic number 18 have the same number of electrons as each of the following items except?

Neutral atoms of argon (atomic number 18) have 18 electrons. Consequently, they do not have the same number of electrons as hydrogen (1 electron), helium (2 electrons), or lithium (3 electrons).


How many protons are in an electrically neutral oxygen atom?

8


What ions have the same number of electrons as a noble gas out of Aluminum oxygen bromine and nitrogen?

Actually all the ions will have. Al3+, O2- and N3- ions will have the same number of electrons as neon (10 electrons), whereas Br- ion will have the same number of electrons as krypton (36 electrons)
