if you want a neutral atom of tin, you would need 50 electrons, because there are 50 protons. you can also conclude this because tin's atomic number is 50. the atomic number always equals the number of protons, and the number of protons always equals the amount of electrons.

How many electrons are in tin - 118?

There are 50 electrons in a tin atom. Tin has atomic number 50, which corresponds to the number of protons and electrons in its neutral state.


If a atom of tin has a mass of 118 and an atomic number of 50 how many electrons does it have?

If the atomic number is 50, the number of electrons is 50.


What is the number of valence electrons for Sn?

Sn has 50 total electrons and is in the Group 4a elements on the periodic table. The nearest Noble Gas that is before Sn is Kr, which has 36 electrons. Therefore, the number of inner electrons (the same as Kr's electrons) is 36, outer electrons is 4 and valence is 4 as well (because its a Group 4a


How many protons and electrons are in the tin IV ion?

The tin IV ion has 50 protons and 48 electrons. Tin has an atomic number of 50, so it normally has 50 electrons. However, since it is in the +4 oxidation state, it loses 4 electrons during ionization, leaving it with 50 protons and 46 electrons. The charge of +4 means it has 4 more protons than electrons, making the total number of protons and electrons in the tin IV ion 50 and 48, respectively.


Does Mercury have more protons than electrons than tin?

Yes. Tin (Sn on your periodic table) has an atomic number of 50, which means it has 50 protons and 50 electrons. Mercury (Hg) has an atomic number of 80, which gives it 30 more each of protons and electrons.


How many core electrons does Sn have?

Sn (tin) has 50 electrons 50 protons and 69 nuetrons


How many electrons are in each shell for tin?

Tin (Sn) has 4 electron shells. The number of electrons in each shell can be determined using the formula 2n^2, where n is the shell number. So, for tin: Shell 1: 2 electrons Shell 2: 8 electrons Shell 3: 18 electrons Shell 4: 18 electrons


Do these four elements carbon silicon germanium tin and lead have the same number of electrons?

no


How many moles of tin can be produced from the electrolysis of SnCl2 if 1 Faraday of electricity is passed?

.5 moles of tin because the half reaction for tin is Sn+4 + 2e- -> Sn+2 since there are 2 electrons needed, for one mole of Sn, 1 faraday would only produce a half of a mole of Sn.


How many valence electrons are in TiO2?

The electronic configuration of Tin is [Kr]4d10 5s2p2. Valence electrons are the electrons on the outermost shell of the neutral atom. Since the outermost shell is the 5th one, we have 4 valence electrons (2 of s and 2 of p)


How many protons does tin-119 have?

All tin isotopes have 50 protons. For neutral atoms, the number of electrons will also be 50. The neutron number is 119 - 50, which is 69.


What is the symbol for tin when it lost 2 electrons?

The symbol for tin when it loses 2 electrons is Sn2+ - this represents tin in its 2+ oxidation state where it has lost 2 electrons.
