Calcium has 20 protons and electrons and a variable number of neutrons, depending on the isotope.


How many protons neutron and electrons calcium?

Calcium has 20 protons and electrons and a number of neutrons different for each isotope..


How many protons does calcium-39 have?

The number of protons in an element will be the same regardless of the isotope or ion. To have a different number of protons would change what type of element it is. So, it is not necessary to say "how many protons does calcium-41 have?" because it is the same as saying "how many protons does calcium have?" The answer is the same in any case, the same as the atomic number, 20.


How many protons and neutrons are there in electronic configuration of the atom of calcium?

The number of protons in a calcium atom is always the same as the atomic number of calcium, which is 20. The number of neutrons depends on the isotope. The most common isotope is Ca-40. The number of neutrons is equal to the isotopic mass number minus the atomic number, in this instance, also 20.


How many protons does calcium 47 have?

mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons. 47 = 20 + neutrons, so neutrons equal 27.


How many subatomic particles does calcium have?

Calcium atoms have 20 protons and 20 electrons. The number of neutrons varies with the isotope.


How many protons does an atom of Calcium have in its nucleus?

A calcium ion has 20 protons, the same as its atomic number. The number of electrons depends on the charge on the ion. For the most common calcium ion with a charge of +2, the number of electrons is 18; 20 - 18 = +2. The number of neutrons depends on the isotope that is ionized and is equal to the mass number of the isotope minus the atomic number of 20.


How many neutrons does Calcium - 45 have?

Calcium-45 has 20 protons (since it is calcium) and therefore, it has 25 neutrons, as the atomic number (number of protons) subtracted from the mass number (protons + neutrons) gives the number of neutrons.


How many protons electrons and neutrons in calcium-44?

Ca-46 is an isotope of the calcium found on the periodic table. The atomic number is equivalent to how many protons the atom has and tells the identity of the element, if the number of protons is changed/ atomic mass number, the element would transmutate into another element. Thus, Ca always has 20 protons. Because it is not Ca++ or Ca- it is not changing the charge so no electrons are moving either. This means the number 46 is refering to a change in neutron in the nucleus of the atom, hence it is called an isotope. 46 is the number of protons plus neutrons so the isotope of Calcium has 20 protons, 20 electrons and 26 neutrons, or 46-20=26. Hope this clarifies things.


How many protons and electrons does a calcium atom have?

Calcium has 20 protons, 20 electrons and 20 neutrons in its most commonly found isotope.

How many protons does have calcium?

Calcium has 20 Protons. You can determine the amount of Protons in an Element by checking the top number of an element. This is called the Atomic number. Calcium has 20 protons
