no. atomic number will be same as the number of protons will not change for an ion and its neutral atom, but the number of electrons will vary.

How many electrons are in a neutral atom atomic number 6?

In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is always the same as the atomic number.


is a Atomic number the number of an atom's?

Atomic number is the number of protons in a neutral atom


What is the relationship between the atomic number and the electrons in neutral atom?

In a neutral atom the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons. And by definition the atomic number of an atom is equal to the number of protons in it. So the atomic number of a neutral atom is equal to the number of protons or the number of electrons in the atom.


What do you notice about the atomic number and the total number of electrons in an atom of that element?

The atomic number is equal to the number of protons in an atom, which also corresponds to the number of electrons in a neutral atom. This means that the atomic number gives you the total number of electrons in a neutral atom of that element.


An isotope shares the atomic number with its element atom How does it differ from the element atom?

An isotope shares the atomic number with its element atom. How does it differ from the element atom?


Does the number of electrons in an atom give its atomic number?

The number of protons is equal to atomic number; in a neutral atom the number of electrons is also equal to the numbers of protons.


What is the atomic number of a neutral atom having 6 electrons and 5 neutrons?

Atomic number is 6. The isotope is 6C11 Atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons (for a neutral atom)


What does the atomic number tell you the number of in a neutral atom of an element?

The atomic number of an element is the number of protons in each atom of the element, whether neutral or not. If the atom is neutral, the number of electrons in the atom is the same as the number of protons.


How can atomic number be used to find the numbers of protons electrons and nuetron's?

The atomic number is the number of protons and therefore, assuming the atom is neutral, the number of electrons. You would need to additionally know the atomic mass to figure out the number of neutrons.


Does number of electrons in an atom give it atomic number?

Yes, the number of electrons in an atom is equal to its atomic number. The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, and since atoms are electrically neutral, they have the same number of electrons.


How do calculate the number of electrons in neutral atom poses?

Look up the atomic number of the element. The atomic number is the number of protons, in a neutral atom this is the same as the number of electrons.


What is the number of electrons in a neutral atom of an element on an periodic table?

There is none, but a neutral atom is called a neutron. There is no neutral element.
