All electrons in every atom are located around the nucleus. In carbon atoms there are two electrons in the first principal energy level and four in the second.
An atom with 2 electrons would be helium, an atom with 8 electrons would be oxygen, and an atom with 6 electrons would be carbon.
an insulator
An electrically neutral carbon atom has the same number of electrons as it does protons: 6, which is equal to its atomic number.
Having 6 protons, the neutral atom of carbon also has 6 electrons.
Carbon IS an atom. I presume you mean how many electrons there are. There are 6 electrons, 6 protons and 6 neutrons in every un-bonded Carbon atom.
An atom with 2 electrons would be helium, an atom with 8 electrons would be oxygen, and an atom with 6 electrons would be carbon.
A single atom of Carbon has 6 electrons, with 4 in the outer shell which it will use to react
6 electrons
an insulator
The neutral carbon atom has 6 electrons.
nitrogen has 5 valence electrons. carbon has 4 valence electrons.
In all there are 6 electrons, but the electrons are distributed over 2 shells. In the first shell, there are 2 electrons, and in the second there are 4 electrons. Note that this applies to the neutral atom of carbon.
there are 12 electrons in carbon. you can find this out by looking at the "ATOMIC NUMBER"
A neutral carbon atom has 6 electrons.
A carbon-12 atom has 6 electrons. The atomic number of carbon is 6, which determines the number of electrons in a neutral carbon atom.
The neutral atom is Carbon, but other ions can have only 6 electrons.
In a neutral atom, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons. So, in an atom with three protons, it would contain three electrons. The number of neutrons does not affect the charge or number of electrons in the atom.
