How many neutrons does the element Sc have?

Answer 1

The atomic number of scandium is 21. So it has 21 protons and 21 electrons.

Number of neutrons depends on the isotope.

Number of neutrons = Mass number - Atomic number

Sc-45 isotope has 24 neutrons

Answer 2

The element Scandium (Sc) has 21 protons in its nucleus, which can be determined using its atomic number. To find the number of neutrons, we can subtract the atomic number from the Atomic Mass: Scandium has an atomic mass of approximately 45. This gives us 45 - 21 = 24 neutrons in a Scandium atom.

Answer 3

There are 21 electrons in a neutral atom of the element scandium.

Answer 4

21 Protons

Protons are the same as the atomic number so Scandium's atomic number is 21 therefore Scandium has 21 protons

Answer 5

that's easy....it's 24 neutrons....cuz it's 45(the atomic mass) - 21 ( the # of protons/ atomic number)

Answer 6

scandium has 24 neutrons

Answer 7

Scandium has 21 protons.

Answer 8

Scandium has 24 neutrons.

Answer 9

21
