Each chlorine atom contains 17 electrons, which offset the electric charge of the 17 protons in the nucleus of each atom, as indicated by the fact that the atomic number of chlorine is 17. The number of neutrons per atom varies, however, depending on which isotope of chlorine is examined. There are two naturally occurring and radioactively stable isotopes of chlorine, with mass numbers of 35 and 37, and there are many other radioactive isotopes. The number of neutrons in an atom of a particular isotope may be found by subtracting 17, the atomic number of chlorine, from the mass number.
Chlorine exist as two isotopes(same number of electrons and protons but different number of neutrons), although there are traces of one more but we're not to sure. ~70% of Chlorine is Chlorine-35 which contains 17 electrons and 18 neutrons ~30% of Chlorine is Chlorine-37 which contains 17 electrons and 20 neutrons and ≤1% of Chlorine-36........
Chlorine has the atomic number of 17. To keep it neutral then, it must have 17 protons and 17 electrons. Chlorine's most common isotope is 35Cl. That means it has 35 - 17 = 18 neutrons.
Chlorine is a metal element. There are 17 electrons in a single atom.
There are particular isotopes that have similar number of electrons and neutrons. Some of these isotopes include hydrogen-2, helium-4, carbon-12 and nitrogen-14.
Chlorine (Cl) has atomic number 17, and so it has 17 protons in the nucleus.
The chemical element of chlorine has 18 nuetrons,17 protons and 17 electrons
There are two main isotopes of chlorine. Every chlorine atom has 17 electrons where there are 18 and 20 neutrons in chlorine-35 and chlorine-37 respectively.

17 same number as protons equal charge balance
The element chlorine has seven electrons in its valence shell.
Chlorine is a non metal element. There are 17 electrons in a single atom.
Chlorine is a chemical element with atomic number 17, which means it has 17 protons in its nucleus. In its natural form, it has two stable isotopes, chlorine-35 and chlorine-37. These isotopes have different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons, making them the same element.
Chlorine is a non metal element. There are 17 electrons in a single atom.
No. Sorry.
Cl-37 : 17 protons , 20 neutrons , 17 electrons Compare with Cl-35 ; 17 protons , 18 neutrons, 17 electrons. These are two different and common isotopes of chlorine. Remember 'Different isotopes have a different number of neutrons'. Chemically they react the same.
Chlorine typically has 18 neutrons in its nucleus, which accounts for its atomic weight of 35.45 g/mol.
Chlorine has the atomic number of 17. To keep it neutral then, it must have 17 protons and 17 electrons. Chlorine's most common isotope is 35Cl. That means it has 35 - 17 = 18 neutrons.
